The Buckhead Library is closed “until further notice” due to an emergency sewer repair, Fulton County officials announced Monday.

The library, located at 269 Buckhead Avenue NE, is one of the county’s early voting locations. Library operations and early voting are suspended until the repairs are complete.

Two nearby early voting locations are Chastain Recreation Center, at 140 W. Wieuca Road, and Northside Library, at 3295 Northside Parkway NW.

Fulton County Chairman Robb Pitts will visit the Buckhead Library on Monday to check on repairs, a press release said.
