Dear Residents,
Due to state and county orders in response to the COVID-19 outbreak, City Hall is closed to the public through at least April 19. During this time, the City will primarily be providing essential city services that are necessary to protect the health, safety, and welfare of our community and City employees. To facilitate these measures, all non-essential staff will be working remotely. Inquiries will be reviewed daily and will be responded to on a case-by-case basis. Please note that our response to your inquiry could be delayed.
Please visit the appropriate department page on the City website for a list of phone numbers and email addresses to accommodate your needs. For a list of departments, visit http://www.rpvca.gov/148/Departments.

While the City recognizes the need for residents to get outdoors under the current “Safer at Home” Order, we remind all park and Nature Preserve visitors to practice social distancing, with 6 feet of separation between people, to use hand-sanitizing stations, and to park ONLY in designated parking spaces. Parking laws are being enforced. Please respect the grounds of our open space areas and dispose of trash in receptacles.
Remember, all indoor and outdoor gatherings of 10 or more people are prohibited under the “Safer at Home” Order.
