Arkansas City Hall begins limited reopening Tuesday as part of Phase 1.5

The City of Arkansas City will begin a very limited reopening of City Hall on Tuesday as part of Phase 1.5 of Kansas Gov. Laura Kelly’s Ad Astra state reopening plan. To maintain the health of its employees and help to limit the spread of coronavirus (COVID-19) locally, the city closed city hall to the public in late March. However, city staff has continued to provide public services during this time through a variety of measures, including by telephone, video conferences, in-person appointments, and online, drive-through and drop-off methods. Starting Tuesday, Arkansas City Municipal Court will resume weekly sessions with strict social distancing and other safeguards in place to protect everyone’s health.
