GEORGE NEWS - George Municipality main and other external municipal buildings are still closed to the public until further notice, due to continued Covid-19 safety measures.
This measure has been considered and the decision not taken lightly following the continued spike in infection rate in George, and within our municipal staff.
We have a responsibility to ensure not only the safety of the officials working for the municipality but also the public.
All essential services continue to be rendered and officials will continue to work from home.
We appeal to the public to consider doing transactions and business online, per telephone or via email to avoid coming to the municipality in person and thus helping to reduce the risk of spreading the virus.
During the Covid-19 crisis period, certain staff may be working from home or on rotation, which means contact details and office hours of some services may differ from usual operations. Please see below for more details per directorate.
