Town of Minto reopening municipal office on Feb. 22

MINTO – The local municipal office is opening to the public in response to the recently-announced relaxation of pandemic-related public health restrictions.

“As the Province of Ontario begins to lift public health restrictions, all staff will be back in the office and the office will be fully open to the public effective Feb. 22,” states a Feb. 15 press release from the Town of Minto. 

As of March 1, the public will not be required to show proof of vaccination to enter town facilities, the release states.

However, due to renovations to the council chambers, council meetings will continue virtually until completion of the renovation, the release notes.
