Meeting Room Reservations Resume

Starting January 11th, we will begin to resume limited public meeting room reservations under very strict guidelines. The ability to create your own reservation from the website will not be available. Only staff will be able to reserve the room for a patron. Please read these guidelines carefully and be as consistent as possible in their application. Thanks to the staff committee that drew up these guidelines. Please refer any questions or concerns to Linda.
