Conducting municipal and county business in-person might soon get easier throughout Garfield County.
But one county office in particular will still be limiting person-to-person interactions due to an inexperienced staff.
The Garfield County Clerk’s Office has made various in-person appointments for various transactions since July of 2020, according to County Clerk Jean Alberico.
Alberico said staff are currently working through a soft opening and will officially be allowing walk-in customers from 8:30-11 a.m. and 2-4 p.m. beginning May 17.
“It took us several months to figure out how to efficiently help customers with remote transactions so we need to take some time to get back into working with walk-in customers,” Alberico said. “I had two long- term Motor Vehicle Clerks sell their homes recently and move out of state. The new team members started on May 3rd.”
