CLEVES, Ohio —
Hamilton County Public Health is issuing a violation notice against a sports park on Cincinnati's west side after it held an event over the weekend, officials said.
Hamilton County Health Commissioner Greg Kesterman said the department received several complaints Monday regarding an event that occurred at Edgewater Motor Sports in Cleves on May 3.
Kesterman said from the video reviewed, the track was in violation of the Ohio Department of Public Health's stay-safe order that took effect May 1. He said Hamilton County Public Health Department will be following up with the facility and issuing a notice of violation.
"We are all in this together and we don't want to have to do this twice so it's on all of us to act in a responsible way," Hamilton County Commissioner Denise Driehaus said. "I've seen the videos and pictures and there was not safe distancing, masks were not being worn. It not only affects the people there but all of the people they interact with. I just want to say that they can recognize that it's on us."
