The Forest County Courthouse will be closed to the public through the end of the year, county commissioners announced Friday.
Essential services are still operational, and staff may be reached via email and by leaving phone messages, the commissioners said.
“The commissioners continue to make decisions resulting in closures based on their concern for the health and safety of their employees as well as the public they serve,” a press release said.
The commissioners’ next public meeting is scheduled at 10 a.m. Wednesday, Dec. 16, and a special meeting to approve the 2021 budget is scheduled at 10 a.m. Wednesday, Dec. 23. Both meeting will be held by teleconference.
The number to call for anyone wishing to attend is (605) 475-5900, and the code to participate is 627777#.
