The Delaware County Chamber of Commerce, Delaware County Council and Delaware County Commerce Center have created a partnership to bring our businesses the Bringing Back DELCO initiative.  Our goal is to simplify and share government orders to our businesses, as well as, answer questions for you. We are not creating the regulations, but working to find you answers and solutions, so you can do business!
There is an alarming high spike in COVID-19 cases across the county. COVID-19 cases in Delaware County have been rising and we are now approaching the highest number of outbreaks since the height of the pandemic.
 
Delaware County’s business community has worked to implement and follow the public health guidance and has made significant changes to how they operate and have been doing everything they can to protect employees and the community. We know it hasn’t been easy and we commend you.
​
We are reminding the business community to recommit to public health guidance to ensure we are doing everything we can to keep each other safe and to remain open. 
  • Work Remotely When Possible.
  • Cease or Reduce Work Travel.
  • Ensure You Are Following Public Health Guidelines on Social Distancing, Mask Wearing, Capacity, Hand Washing, Sanitizing, Etc. More guidelines and safety practices can be found here.
  • Stay Home If You Are Not Feeling Well or Experiencing Any Symptoms of COVID-19.
Thank you for your commitment to keeping DELCO SAFE and DELCO STRONG.

Self-Certification Form Now Open
​The online self-certification form for COVID compliant businesses is now open on the Pennsylvania COVID website.
​Restaurants can now show customers and workers they are protecting their health, safety, and economy by completing the new self-certification form. The online form requires restaurants to confirm they are complying with all CDC and state public health guidance and safety requirements.
There is no cost to participate. Enrolling in the program is voluntary, and participating restaurants receive:
  • Permission to increase indoor dining from 25% to 50% occupancy 
  • A listing on the searchable public Open & Certified Pennsylvania Business Directory
  • Free Open & Certified Pennsylvania signs for your physical location, website, and social media
  • Timely updates, reminders, and alerts for new business guidance and resources
Self-certifying will not lead to any additional inspections. If you have a COVID-19 related violation you will first get warnings and education, rather than fines or other penalties.
Please share this information with your networks, restaurant and food service partners, and community.
