Temporary changes to Gainesville City Hall office hours

Press release from City of Gainesville

GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Due to issues with the air conditioning system at Gainesville City Hall, leading to unsafe heat levels inside the building, City Manager Cynthia W. Curry is asking all City Hall employees to work remotely until further notice. Steps are being taken to restore climate control and reopen the building. The resumption of regular hours is tentatively set for early next week.

For neighbors who need to pay business tax, handle parking permits or citations, or pay customer invoices at City Hall during this time, please refer to your documents for online payment information. If you have questions, please call Revenue and Receivables at 352-334-5024. Leave a voice message, and a staff member working remotely will contact you with more information.

The Gainesville City Commission’s General Policy Committee (GPC) meeting scheduled for Thursday, June 13 has been canceled.

The City Clerk’s Office will remain open.

Please stay alert for notice of full City Hall reopening in the coming days.

  • Oh Crap! Didn’t “Her Brilliance” just cut GVCC maintenance budget? Bet she did; she knows all you have to do is kick the vent a couple times and it will start working again! What essential activity is next to sacrifice for her and her cronies bloated salaries?

  • What’s unsafe? 80 degrees?

    Air conditioning is for taxpayers, not parasites. Get back in your box and sweat.

  • They should make them work in a building where the thermostat isn’t the most comfortable. Maybe they will get a taste of what us GRU ratepayers have to do….turn the thermostat up because we can’t afford the highest rates in the state!
