(KNZA)--The Hiawatha City Commission in a short special meeting Friday evening voted to not require the wearing of masks during Saturday's Prom at the Fisher Center--reversing a decision made two days earlier.

Mayor Bill Collins made the motion, which was seconded by Commissioner Brian Shefferd, and approved on a unanimous vote.

There was no discussion prior to the vote.

The Prom issue was the only item on the agenda, and the meeting lasted only two minutes. 

The Commission in a special meeting Wednesday afternoon had approved lifting the mask requirement for private events at the Fisher Center, beginning Monday--after the high school prom.
