Due to the rapid increases in Covid-19 cases, the Town of Smithfield has made the decision to close the Town Hall and all other Town buildings to public access beginning on Monday, November 23rd. All departments will operate as normal and all staff will be available by phone, email, or the drop boxes located in the front of Town Hall.
Does this include the towns ice rink?
How can i pay my tax bill, only have cash
All town buildings due to safety. Does that mean schools will be closing, as well? I haven’t gotten a robo-call yet.
Oh no. Should we start stocking up on library books now ? Lol
Is the Greenville Library open? Does it plan to close on November 30 for the pause for two weeks?
While I respect and appreciate the safety of staff and visitors to Town Hall and all other Town buildings to public access, I am equally concerned about our school staff and students as it relates to positive cases and the number of students and adults quarantined from “just a few cases”.
