In an announcement today, Wednesday, March 18, 2020, Mayor Judith Sheets stated all City of Frankfort Public Meetings will be canceled through April 4, 2020.
This decision comes in response to the continued spread of the COVID-19, coronavirus, and the Indiana State Department of Health (ISDH) directive to practice social distancing and limit the size of meetings and gatherings.
Residents are also encouraged to call city offices prior to visiting as many issues and concerns may be resolved over the phone.
Public meetings being canceled include:
• March 18 Board of Zoning Appeals meeting
• March 23 Board of Works and City Council meetings
• March 23 Redevelopment Commission meeting
• All City Court dates at Old Stoney through April 7.
City of Frankfort officials will reevaluate this policy on April 1 and will consult with local health officials and ISDH prior to making any additional changes.
During the next few weeks, city leaders will be working to implement audio and video options to provide remote access to individuals once public meetings resume.
