(KAIR)--The closure of the Doniphan County Courthouse has been extended.
According to a release from Doniphan County Emergency Management Coordinator Julie Meng, the Courthouse, located in Troy, will remain closed to the public until Monday, April 20.
That decision was made through a vote Monday of the Doniphan County Commission.
The closure is in place to limit public access because of COVID-19 concerns.
It was first implemented by the Commission last month.
At that time, it was decided to keep the doors of the Courthouse locked, but County employees remain at work to serve the public by telephone or email.
A drop box is in place on the north side of the courthouse for all documents that need to be dropped off. The County asks that all documents be placed in a secured envelope with the name of the department it should be delivered to.
