(KAIR)--Doniphan County on Friday joined other local area governments in limiting public access because of pandemic concerns.
That decision was made during a special meeting held at the Doniphan County Courthouse, in Troy.
According to the meeting minutes, governmental offices will be closed and limited to the public from midnight Saturday morning through April 6 at 11:59 p.m. At that time, the closure will be re-evaluated by the Commission.
During the closure, employees will continue working regular hours while following CDC guidelines.
The closure was approved unanimously.
According to a release from Doniphan County Emergency Management Coordinator Julie Meng, the doors of the Doniphan County Courthouse will be locked.
County employees will still be working to serve the public by telephone and email. A drop box has been placed on the north side of the courthouse for all documents that need to be dropped off.
Please make sure all documents are in a secured envelope with the name of the department it should be delivered to.
