FURTHER MEASURES ADOPTED BY CITY TO ENCOURAGE SOCIAL DISTANCING

The City and utilities have adopted further measures to help mitigate the public’s exposure to COVID-19. Beginning March 23 and through the end of April, all City buildings will be closed to the public. All offices are conducting business and are available through phone and email during regular business hours. These measures will be reviewed and may be modified by April 30.

The City will continue having meetings for the following groups: City Council, Board of Works, Planning & Zoning Commission, Board of Zoning Appeals, Parks & Recreation Board, and Redevelopment Commission. The Parks Board, which is usually held at Rieth Interpretive Center, 410 W. Plymouth Ave., will be moved to the Council Chambers, 111 E. Jefferson St. in April. The date and time of the meeting will remain the same.

To view a schedule of all City meetings, go to goshenindiana.org/calendar.

Meetings also will be streamed on Zoom for the public to view. Links to the videos will be shared on the City website and Facebook accounts for viewers to access. More information will be available later.

On Monday, Indiana Gov. Eric Holcomb signed an executive order asking residents to stay at home or their place of residence and listing permitted activities and travel. Because of this executive order, all City of Goshen playgrounds will be closed to the public. For more information, please call the Parks & Recreation Department at 534.2901.
