Richmond Virginia Police Department issued the following announcement on Nov. 19
City of Richmond offices will be closed on Wednesday, November 24 and Monday, December 27.
The original city calendar designated holidays on November 25 and 26 for Thanksgiving and December 23 and 24 for winter holidays. The two additional holidays will afford employees a much-needed opportunity to recharge after a challenging year.
“Each and every public servant on this team has spent the year going above and beyond,” said CAO Lincoln Saunders. “These two additional days are a symbol of our heartfelt gratitude to the city workforce.”
“I couldn’t be prouder of the entire City of Richmond team,” said Mayor Stoney. “In the face of many challenges, they have responded with innovative solutions and diligent work. These days are well-deserved and vital to sustain our efforts to serve the community.”
As usual, the holidays will not affect the provision of emergency services.
