SAN FRANCISCO, CA — San Francisco City Hall will open to the public on Monday for the first time in 15 months, and most offices will be open for full service, officials said on Saturday.
"Reopening City Hall is not only symbolic," said City Administrator Carmen Chu. "[It] represents expanded access to services for those who have had a hard time engaging by phone or through the internet. As we take this next step, please remember to continue taking precautions. Let's keep our masks on and maintain our social distance."
Indeed, visitors will be required to wear face coverings and stay 6 feet apart in order to enter the building, which will be open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays.
