COVID-19: protecting public health

HEALTH & SAFETY POLICY: WORD of Comal County (Updated April 1, 2021)

POLICY: The virus that causes COVID-19 can be spread to others by infected persons who have few or no symptoms. Due to the hidden nature of this threat, it is the policy of WORD of Comal County to require the following:

A FACE COVERING IS ONLY REQUIRED WHEN ENTERING THE MAIN OFFICE AREA (signs posted). All persons over the age of ten (10), including employees, customers, visitors, invitees, and contractors (“Patrons”) who enter this business must wear a face covering over their nose and mouth, such as a homemade mask, scarf, bandana, or handkerchief ONLY when entering the main office area. The requirement of a face covering does not apply if covering the nose and mouth poses a greater mental or physical health, safety, or security risk, such as anyone who has trouble breathing, or is unconscious, incapacitated. Or otherwise unable to remove the cover without assistance.

Online Payment System Live

Business owners can now pay monthly or quarterly taxes online. In order to pay online, businesses must first register with the activation key that was mailed out with 4th Quarter Tax Returns. If you did not receive one, email the WORD office at info@wordcc.com or call (830) 907-2300.

The processing fee to pay with a credit card is 2.4 percent. There is no charge for online payments made with an e-check. Businesses reporting zeros can also remit a tax form online.

We are hopeful that these steps will aid local businesses and the visiting public to recover from the current impact of restrictions.
