Accessing County Services

Last Updated March 24:

Last week, the Board of Commissioners developed a multi-stage plan to assure that County services will remain available to our citizens. Under the Governor’s Stay At Home Executive Order, local governments are considered essential services. To comply with the Order, and after teleconferencing with all County department heads yesterday, we have moved to stage two of our plan which includes:

  • Extending the closure of our buildings to the public through at least April 7th; 
  • Reducing staffing levels at our buildings to a basic skeleton crew and when possible, allow employees to work from home so that residents can still access County government services by phone or email. 
  • Developing a teleconferencing process that can be streamed live for critical public meetings to assure the continuity of government and pay our vendors, businesses and contractors so they can pay their employees.
  • Continuing to provide accurate and comprehensive communications with our residents along with information about accessing county services through the County government Facebook page and on our website.
  • Requesting that our citizens be patient while accessing County services and use emails rather than phone calls to contact County departments. You can find more information about accessing services below.


Accessing County Services

  1. When possible, residents who need to access services at County buildings can do so in the following ways:
    • Call the appropriate department. You can find a complete list of phone numbers at DEPARTMENT DIRECTORY.
    • Many services are available to citizens through our website at: 
      • How Do I... 
      • County Services 
      • Some Departments offer the ability to obtain or request services online, or you can easily reach them by email. To find and view a Department’s page(s) on our website, visit Departments.
      • If you cannot locate the service you are seeking, you can submit an Online Request For Service and your request will be forwarded to the appropriate department.
    • If you have questions about a pending case in the Courts, please contact your attorney or the Court directly. If you are not sure what Court should contact, you can look up your pending Court Case (adult cases only) at Find Adult Court Cases Online. The individual Court phone numbers can be found at DEPARTMENT DIRECTORY.
