County offices will remain open, some events postponed

The Hamilton County Courthouse, Judicial Center and other county offices will be open for business Monday. County Commissioner Steve Dillinger, meeting with other officials Friday afternoon, reported normal hours will continue to be observed unless the current pandemic situation changes.

Commissioners had earlier established certain protocols for dealing with the problem and believe the county government is prepared to adequately handle the emergency.

Certain events have been postponed or canceled, including the annual Lincoln Day Dinner which was to be held on March 19. It is now scheduled for 5:30 p.m. on April 26 at Carmel’s 502 East Event Center.

A forum for Democratic Congressional candidates set for March 26 at the Fishers Library has been canceled.

The Carmel Clay GOP annual chili supper planned for March 19 has been postponed to a yet to be determined date in April.
