The City of Champaign is reopening City facilities to the public beginning Tuesday as the State of Illinois transitions into the Bridge to Phase 5 stage of the Restore Illinois plan.
The following City facilities will reopen as follows, except City holidays:
- City Building: Monday-Friday 8:00 a.m. – 5 p.m.
- Police Station: Sunday-Saturday 8:00 a.m. – 10 p.m.

“With the move to the Bridge Phase of the Restore Illinois plan and lower COVID-19 positivity rates in Champaign County, it was determined to be safe to welcome the public back into City facilities,” said Jeff Hamilton, communications manager for the City of Champaign, in a press release.
Clear partitions have been installed at customer service counters and commonly touched surfaces are disinfected “frequently,” according to the press release.
People who request in-person customer service at City facilities will be required to wear masks, as vaccination statuses of the public will be unknown.
