City Manager’s Assistant

Due to rapidly changing circumstances, the City Manager has made the difficult decision to close to the public City Hall, the Library and the Sr. Center for an indefinite period, but at least until Mon. Mar. 30.

Despite this situation, the City is still committed to delivering certain core services. But, only critical staff will remain on site. Most employees will be working from home. Buildings will be closed to the public effective immediately.

We encourage residents to interact with the City by mail or on-line. We also encourage the use of our 3-1-1 phone line during previous business hours.
Extension of Deadlines
All renewals periods for parking permits and parking stickers are extended until June 1, 2020. Renewals for all current dog tags expiring on March 31st and April 30 have been extended until June 1st.

All parking ticket appeals must be submitted in writing by mail, online, or dropped off in the green mailbox outside of City Hall on Washington Avenue. To accommodate this change, the appeal period for all tickets issued on or after March 1st will be extended by thirty (30) days. No appeals will be accepted in person at City Hall for any reason.

The City will extend the date for payment of excise tax bills due on March 25, 2020. Those bills will now be due no later than April 28, 2020. No interest shall accrue during this extension period.
