County Offices Slowly Reopening

County Administration building

As we proceed through Phase One of the reopening process set forth by the Governor’s Office, Churchill County administrative offices are beginning to resume more normal operations starting May 18.

Most county administrative offices are staffed and some have opened their doors. However, residents are encouraged to call the office they want before showing up to make sure. If you do walk-in, please consider wearing a face covering and practice social distancing for the consideration of others.

County meetings will continue to be held via Zoom. Please check the county website at: https://www.churchillcounty.org/37/Agendas-Minutes for log-in and call-in information for each meeting.
