County offices reopened this week
Following a nine week closure, Benton County offices reopened to the public on Tuesday, May 26, 2020 at 8:00 a.m.

The public can expect “check-in stations” at the entryway of each County facility. Each station provides hand sanitizer and disposable face masks, and guidance for individuals that feel sick or have symptoms to not to enter the facility and instead to conduct business over the phone or by email.

All members of the public will be asked to wear a face covering or mask when entering County facilities. Additionally, individuals will need to provide contact information in order for the County to conduct contact tracing, in the case of possible exposure.
