In an effort to limit the spread of COVID-19 and to promote social distancing, the City of Roseburg is implementing temporary changes to the public’s access to City Hall, beginning Monday morning at 8:00 a.m.
Communications Specialist Eric Johnson said residents are strongly urged to conduct business with the City via phone and email.
Customers who need to meet in person with staff, will be limited to the front lobby only, which is located on the 2nd floor. Public access to other areas of City Hall is suspended until further notice.
City Manager Nikki Messenger said “with the increased spread of COVID-19, we are taking drastic steps to help protect staff and the public”. She said the City is doing its best to balance customer service with the safety of its employees and customers “during these unprecedented times”. Messenger said additional measures may be taken in the future if necessary or required by the county, state, or federal government.
City Hall continues to close at 4:30 p.m. weekdays so staff can perform deep cleaning of work and common areas.
