In observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day, the City of Fort Collins has announced a schedule of office closures on Monday, January 20. As reported by the City of Fort Collins, all non-essential services and offices will not be available, while essential services such as fire, police, and utilities will operate as usual.
Residents looking to visit the Fort Collins Museum of Discovery must reschedule, as it will also be temporarily closed to honor the federal holiday. Those planning to rapidly get around town can still count on Transfort, which will provide regular service despite Transfort offices being shut for the day. The city’s announcement clarified that recreational facilities and the Gardens on Spring Creek will still welcome visitors seeking leisure activities on the day.
Following the one-day pause, city offices and facilities are set to resume their regular schedules. The official city notification ensured that normal hours will resume on Tuesday, January 21. This allows city employees to pay homage to the civil rights leader without prolonging interruptions to public services beyond the holiday.
