Douglas County Commissioners Tom Kress, Chris Boice and Tim Freeman would like to remind citizens that county government offices will be closed on Monday, January 19th, in observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

A county release said that it includes offices in the courthouse on Southeast Douglas Avenue in Roseburg, as well as the County Justice Building, Courthouse Annex in Reedsport, county landfill and transfer stations, fairgrounds, and all external government offices.

Even when county government offices are closed, many officials and public employees continue on special, routine, or emergency projects. Those include the Board of Commissioners, Sheriff’s Office, Juvenile Department, Public Works Department, Emergency Management Department, museums, Parks Department and Salmon Harbor Marina.

Both the Douglas County Museum of History and Natural History in Roseburg and the Umpqua River Lighthouse Museum in Winchester Bay will be open on Monday for normal business hours. All county operated parks, campgrounds and boat ramps will continue to be open as well.

Even though the DCSO lobby entrance will be closed, deputies, 911 communications and other DCSO staff will continue to provide law enforcement protection and emergency assistance for residents. Those with an emergency can still call 911. For non-emergency situations, call DCSO at 440-4471.
