***** Message from Executive Director, Molly Berns *****
Due to the COVID – 19 virus, the office of the Springfield-Sangamon County Regional Planning Commission is temporarily closed. The safety of our staff is a primary concern, and it is our hope that by following the social distancing directives outlined by local, state and federal officials, we will remain healthy.
All meetings organized and hosted by the SSCRPC staff are cancelled until April 3, 2020. We will be monitoring information that is available from public health officials on a daily basis, and make a determination about meetings scheduled later in April as soon as possible.
We are thankful that development projects continue to move forward even while our community is facing public health challenges. The SSCRPC staff are proud to be a part of that process. As we look forward to April, we are investigating various options that can be temporarily implemented including the possibility of holding “virtual” meetings should there be a need for the SSCRPC to take formal action on a pending development.
In the meantime, staff will be working from home, and checking email and voicemail regularly to address any immediate needs. We hope that you and your loved ones remain safe and healthy during these challenging times.
