The St. Joseph City Council meeting scheduled March 16 was canceled. Items from this agenda will be rescheduled, according to a statement from City Administrator Kris Ambuehl.
Due to the Covid-19 virus pandemic, the city of St Joseph will be restricting access to City Hall and other government facilities effective immediately. Access to the Community Center will also be restricted. The food shelf and Little Saints Academy will remain open, but all other functions such as Adult Basic Education, open gym and Historical Society will be stopped for the time being and the building closed.
“In order to provide continuity of operations for city services we must protect both our staff and the public moving forward,” Ambuehl wrote in the statement. “We are asking the public for the purpose of city business to communicate with city staff via phone (320-363-7201) and email cityoffices@cityofstjoseph.com.
If you need to pay a utility bill, use the drop-off receptacle in front of City Hall. The city of St Joseph is dedicated to protecting the residents of St Joseph, and will continue to monitor this situation.”
