Madison City Council closes City Hall until further notice

Madison’s City Council voted to close City Hall to the public once again during a special meeting Tuesday evening. The decision was part of the city’s review of its response to the COVID-19 pandemic. City Clerk Victoria Stewart had requested the council consider closing the doors due to increased traffic inside of the building. “There’s nothing we can’t do over the phone,” Stewart said. “I don’t see much of a point of putting ourselves at risk if we don’t have to. We’ve been able to handle everything over the phone and email.”
