County offices, parks to remain closed through rest of week for storm

Pinellas County Government offices and all County parks and preserves will remain closed through the rest of the week due to Hurricane Milton. The closures include all departments under the County Administrator, the Clerk's Office, Property Appraiser, Tax Collector and Supervisor of Elections.

Pinellas County is in the path of Hurricane Milton, a powerful storm that is expected to bring life-threatening storm surge, hurricane force winds, rainfall flooding and other impacts. The County is under a mandatory evacuation for residents in Zones A, B and C and all mobile homes.

Many County employees are working this week in storm-related roles, including emergency management, safety and emergency services, transportation, public works, utilities, solid waste, communications, animal services and shelter support.

Information about when County offices and parks will reopen will be announced after the storm impacts are assessed.
