Library and Community Center closings as of 3/15/20

Message from Town Supervisor Bill Smith - Sunday, 3/15/20

COVID 19 UPDATE: - LIBRARY CLOSING - COMMUNITY CENTER CLOSING

With regret, but in light of the closing of the schools, of advice from the New York Library Association and following consultation with Pittsford's Library Director, its Recreation Director and after consultation with Village Mayor Robert Corby, I announce the following steps:

1. The Pittsford Community Library will not open today and will be closed until further notice. The Library's online resources remain available and you can review them here: http://www.townofpittsford.org/home-library-resources.

2. The Spiegel Community Center will close until further notice, effective from the conclusion of its regular hours today, Sunday March 15. Our Senior Center Staff have been working to identify those Senior Center participants who depend upon the County Nutrition Program for seniors. Our staff will be checking in with these individuals weekly to ensure their needs are being met. We are working with the County Office of the Aging to arrange for delivery of meals to residents who rely on the Nutrition Program.

3. Town Hall remains open. Please consider conducting business with the Town by mail, phone, email or by using the drop slot whenever possible. The drop slot is immediately to the right of the front door of Town Hall. The Town Clerk's staff checks for drop slot deposits the first thing each morning. All material collected each morning is deemed to have been received on the previous day, so you can make a timely submission of time-sensitive material even after hours.

Pittsford is a resilient community. We draw upon the strength of each other and of our community institutions as we cope with the current health emergency together.
