Restore Illinois Illinois Mitigation Plan

The City of Wheaton is part of Region 8 under the state's Restore Illinois Plan, which includes DuPage and Kane counties. All of Illinois moved into Tier 3 of the state’s Restore Illinois Mitigation Plan on Nov. 20, 2020. Additional restrictions may be triggered if the region meets metrics representing a sustained increase in COVID-19 found within the Restore Illinois Mitigation Plan.

Governor JB Pritzker’s Restore Illinois plan calls for reopening the state in five phases after meeting key benchmarks.  Details regarding the plan and current statistics can be viewed at https://www.dph.illinois.gov/restore.
