MINTO – The Town of Minto has decided to close its municipal office indefinitely.
“The Town of Minto continues to keep public safety as top priority during the unique circumstances surrounding COVID-19,” states an Oct. 29 press release from the town.
“As the numbers continue to climb, the Town of Minto remains devoted to ensuring all safety measures are followed, to protect our staff and the public.”
The municipality initially announced on Oct. 16 it was closing the office, located outside Harriston, for two weeks.
The press release announcing the extended closure states “continuity of essential services such as fire, water, wastewater, and road maintenance will be ensured.”
The remainder of staff – building services, recreation, administration and economic development – will work “from various alternate locations, to ensure that staff are distanced properly.”
Residents are urged to call the municipal office and leave a voicemail.
Staff can also be reached by email (a list of email addresses cane be found here).
