City Manager Nathan Olson told The Leader that while COVID-19 may have been a part of the reason, there were many other reasons to cut back during the holidays, including the implementation of new software, vacations, some regular sicknesses and more.
“You can still make an appointment and come in,” said Olson. “We’re still serving our customers.” He went on to say that shutting the offices down for a while was his decision.
