As Juneteenth approaches, the City has laid out a schedule detailing which services and offices will be operational during the holiday. According to a press release from the city's official website, public safety and emergency services, including police, fire, and EMS personnel, are set to remain fully active on Wednesday, June 19. However, many other municipal offices and services will observe the holiday closure.

For those seeking general services on Juneteenth, the city's 3-1-1 Call Center will be operational from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and will continue to run from 5 p.m. to 11 p.m. specifically for urgent animal concerns and traffic signal malfunctions. The holiday also brings a parking meter reprieve, as on-street parking meters will not be enforced, though this does not extend to off-street City-operated garages and lots. Essential services like Animal Care Officers and Code Enforcement Officers will be on duty to diligently provide inspections and emergency coverage.

Recreation-wise, San Antonio residents will be able to take advantage of the city's outdoor pools, which remain open; details on hours and locations are available at the San Antonio Parks and Rec website. City parks and trails also await visitors, and limited fitness and park classes are set to be held. Regular garbage, recycling, and organics collection will not be disrupted, maintaining their usual schedule throughout the week.

Facilities such as the Municipal Court magistration services and SAPD's detention center will continue to operate, as well as popular historical and shopping destinations like La Villita, Market Square shops, and the Spanish Governors Palace. However, closures include the Central Library and all library locations, various community and fitness centers, all Metro Health clinics and offices, and the San Antonio Municipal Court. Senior/Adult Comprehensive Centers and the Child Care Services administrative offices will also shut their doors in observance of Juneteenth. Additionally, administrative offices for several city departments, including Economic Development and Neighborhood and Housing Services, are confirmed to be closed, as well as drop-off centers for bulky waste and household hazardous materials.

As the city honors the significance of Juneteenth, residents are encouraged to plan accordingly for city service availability. For the full list of open and closed services, residents can refer to the detailed schedule posted by the City.
