Roswell City Hall and other city offices reopened to the public this week with normal business hours and for walk-up appointments.

Hours of City Hall, 38 Hill St., and city offices at 1810 Hembree Road are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. Information: https://bit.ly/3d4bCvm

“Visitors to these city facilities are encouraged to wear face coverings, practice physical distancing, and utilize the hand sanitizing stations throughout the buildings to help impede the spread of COVID-19,” according to a city announcement.

The Community Development Department at City Hall has different hours – 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday – for the public intake of applications for such purposes as building permits and tree removal. This allows staff time in the mornings and afternoons to process applications and sanitize public areas, the city said.

Applications also can be submitted by email to: planningandzoning@roswellgov.com

Roswell Municipal Court will not reopen until Monday, June 22. For court information: www.roswellgov.com/CourtServices
