• Keep the Courthouse open to the public indefinitely.
  • We will continue to monitor the situation and see if there is an up spike in cases.
  • If yes, we could close to the public again.
• Only allow a specific number of people in each office. This number is based on square footage and set by the Governor.

• Temperature checks will continue for everyone who enters the Courthouse.
• Employees are encouraged to wear a mask when dealing with the public directly, but not mandated.
• The public will still be mandated to wear a face mask when they enter the Courthouse.
  • We will continue to monitor the situation to determine when this practice will end.
• We are still requesting that any services which can be done online or on the phone continue to be done that way. We suggest making an appointment with individual offices. This keeps the flow moving as we still have to abide by social distancing guidelines.
