Your best bet would be to contact other communities in your area who may have the same opposition, so that you can organize a joint, peaceful protest together. I would advise against attempting this alone due to the potential risk of reprisals. It will also be important to make sure that your actions are lawful and within the boundaries of your local bylaws and any collective bargaining agreementsthat may apply. You could hold an online meeting using video conferencing tools, or plan meetings during off-peak hours when fewer people will be around. Additionally, you could organize letter-writing campaigns or phone banks urging elected officials to reconsider the policy as well as media campaigns aiming to spread awareness about why the policy is wrong and should change.

Organize a peaceful protest outside of public areas and make sure to maintain social distancing, stay connected by phone or online messaging platforms, use hashtags to spread awareness online, focus on creating public awareness rather than attracting attention from authorities. Additionally, keep yourself and others safe by notifying the police of your activity and ensuring that all participants are aware of the risks involved in participating in an unsanctioned protest.
