Minto modifies operations at municipal office amidst second wave of COVID-19

The Town of Minto is modifying operations at the municipal office in the midst of the second wave of COVID-19.

Starting Tuesday, October 6th, the municipal office will still be open to receive documents from the public, and staff will assist them in any way they can. Any meetings with municipal staff will need to be pre-booked appointments. These appointments can be made by calling the Municipal Office at 519-338-2511. Staff in the office will also be reduced at any given time to better protect staff and the public.

Anyone who comes to the office to drop off documents or for an appointment with staff must wear a mask and sanitize their hands upon entry. Minto says they will continue to ensure continuity of their services as they have throughout the pandemic.
