THE LAURENS COUNTY COUNCIL MEETINGS ARE NOW OPEN TO THE PUBLIC.

First and foremost, the Laurens County Council and all of the Laurens County Departments appreciate your understanding and due diligence during the recent minimizing of County Services during the recent COVID19 Pandemic. As of June 23, 2020, the Laurens County Council has elected to allow public services to resume as normal.

Your health and safety as well as our employees remain our priority focus at this time. As we begin the process of slowly re-opening, we encourage you to continue to practice safe social distancing, good hygiene, and avoiding unnecessary visits to congregate areas, especially if you are considered high risk for serious health complications. Masks or face coverings may help protect you and those around you when you are in public.

• We are encouraging people to use online resources when available;
• We ask for those that are sick to please stay home.
