County offices to reopen to the public June 4

Montgomery County government buildings closed to the public since March 17 will reopen Thursday, June 4.

The Montgomery County Board of Supervisors, in collaboration with county elected officials and department heads, determined the county is ready to reopen facilities, and they are encouraging the public to continue to respectively follow COVID-19 related safety procedures to make this transition a smooth and safe one.

“Health screenings will no longer be conducted at the buildings; however, we are encouraging the public to wear masks, use available hand sanitizer upon entering and leaving buildings, and practice social distancing by maintaining at least six feet distance from others,” said Montgomery County Auditor Stephanie Burke. “We ask that only costumers that are directly required to complete the transactions enter the building. For example, one parent per minor for consent; no other guests, including children.

The Board of Supervisors will work closely with Montgomery County Emergency Management and Montgomery County Public Health to monitor the situation within the community and determine the best way to serve the public during this time.

Burke said in addition to offices reopening, the public can continue to access county government services by phone, e-mail, online, or the courthouse drop box.
