CITY OF GULFPORT COVID-19 UPDATE: OPERATIONS 

The City of Gulfport is working diligently to reopen city facilities in a way that is responsible and safe for everyone. Based upon the reported increase in COVID-19 activity this past Thursday, with Pinellas County experiencing a very high single-day number of coronavirus cases, the City of Gulfport has determined that it is in the best interests of the residents and staff to continue the limited operational model as they pertain to City Hall, City Facilities and City Departments.

The City Manager is focused on restoring and reintroducing City services that are most important to serve our community by following the guidance released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), World Health Organization (WHO), the Governor's Executive Orders, OSHA Workplace Standards, and Pinellas County Government.

Below is important contact information to remain in contact with the City of Gulfport staff.


Please continue to check in with the City’s COVID-19 webpage for updates, mygulfport.us/covid-19 , and you may call us (727) 893-1000 with any questions or concerns you may have. We look forward to getting everyone back here as soon as possible.
