Face masks will still be required.

According to the city, building and services will be limited to HVAC changeouts, re-roof permits, water heaters, and electric panel change-outs.

Planning services will be limited to inquiries about zoning or property information, inquiries on applications and approvals, viewing public documents, help with submitting applications and zoning clearance submittals.
