In an effort to slow the spread of COVID-19, the City of Staunton continues to enhance its response with the following actions:
As of 5 p.m. on Monday, March 23, 2020 City Hall and the Irene Givens Administration Building in Montgomery Hall Park will be closed to the public. Citizens will have uninterrupted access to city staff for continued services to the greatest extent possible. A new online resource will go live Monday with streamlined access for the public to take care of their city needs.
Effective immediately the Police Department is suspending its ride-along program and significantly curtailing public fingerprinting services. The department will still assist individuals who need fingerprinting for employment purposes. Individuals are encouraged to call 540.332.3842 before visiting the police if they have any questions relating to fingerprinting.
