STURGIS, SD – Based on information from the Governor’s Office including the scheduled school closures next week, the City of Sturgis has made the decision to close the Sturgis Public Library and the Sturgis Community Center effective Monday, March 16. The closure will be in place until at least March 23. An extended closure may be determined if deemed necessary. All scheduled events and activities at these facilities during this closure are also canceled.
City staff at these facilities will remain working at the facilities and will be conducting a deep cleaning and sanitization process.
All other City offices will remain open and City staff will be available to assist the public with routine business. The Finance Office/Municipal Billing Office temporarily located in the Community Center will remain open and accessible during normal business hours from 8:00 AM until 5:00 PM Monday – Thursday. Customers will need to access the Finance Office by using the doors on the north side of the building. On Friday, March 20, the Finance/Utility Billing Office will be closed while they move the office back to City Hall at 1040 Harley-Davidson Way.
We encourage utility customers to use the payment drop box located in front of the Community Center or to sign up for online payments.
The City continues to monitor information from the State Department of Health as well as our local healthcare providers. These closures are preventative measures to assist with keeping our community safe.
