At this time the City of Portales is developing a phased protocol approach to dealing with COVID 19. A few things that will be implemented today are as follows:

  • Signs, publications, notices, to the public discouraging personal contact and encouraging payment of utilities by phone, internet, and automatic draft when practical.
  • We will be limiting access throughout City Hall.
  • Events that have been scheduled such as the Great American Clean-up, City Easter Egg Hunt, City Recreational events, and events scheduled at our rental facilities are being cancelled or re-scheduled.
  • The Public Library has limited access to only 30 users at a time and access to public computers has been restricted in order to limit close proximity contact.
  • Suspended all work related employee travel
