Hillsborough County Closed on October 30 Due to Furlough
 
Hillsborough County offices under the Board of County Commissioners will CLOSE on Friday, Oct. 30, the first of five furlough days that have been scheduled throughout the next fiscal year:

  • Friday, Jan. 15, 2010
  • Friday, April 2, 2010
  • Friday, June 18, 2010
  • Thursday, Sept. 9, 2010
  • Emergency services, wastewater plants, solid waste collection and some children's services will not be affected by these furlough closures. They will affect all other Hillsborough County services, including Head Start centers, libraries, parks and recreation centers, neighborhood service centers and senior centers. In addition, book drop-off stations at libraries will not be in service.

    This closure will save Hillsborough County an estimated $700,000 in personnel costs.

    Satellite offices for constitutional offices, such as the Clerk of the Circuit Court, Property Appraiser and the Tax Collector, may be open Oct. 30, even if they are collocated with Hillsborough County offices. Residents should call these respective offices to verify their hours of operations before traveling.

    For more information about changes to hours of operation or locations that took effect Oct. 1 for several Hillsborough County departments -- including Animal Services; Library Services; Parks, Recreation & Conservation Services; and Veterans Affairs --visit www.hillsboroughcounty.org/changeofhours
