Charlotte County has announced its holiday schedule for government offices and facilities as Thanksgiving draws near. Before you start preparing your turkey and stuffing, be aware that these closures and changes on November 28 and 29 may have an impact on your preparations.
According to an official notice, the Charlotte County Administration Center and all other government business offices in Charlotte County will be closed, so residents should make plans in advance. This implies that you should finish up any government-related tasks before the holiday. The Punta Gorda/Englewood Beach Visitor & Convention Bureau Office will not be able to assist you in person if you are entertaining out-of-town guests, but you can still get information on tourism online.
There will also be a Christmas break for the Charlotte County Utilities Department. There won’t be client service, but standby employees will be accessible for emergencies. You can still pay your payments, though, by phone at 941-764-4300 or online. Expect the trucks on Friday if your trash is normally picked up on Thursday because garbage collection has been put back one day.
There aren’t many possibilities for holiday recreation. The Captain Don Cerbone Memorial Skate Park will remain open, but you won’t be able to visit the library or go swimming in the community pool. Pools like the Ann & Chuck Dever Regional Park Pool and the Centennial Park Pool will close for the holiday and return on November 29 with restricted hours. All Charlotte County libraries, including the central Mid-County Regional Library, will also be closed.
Charlotte County Transit will be closed Thursday through Saturday, so those who depend on public transit should find other ways to get about. While their headquarters will be on vacation, vital services like fire and emergency medical stations will continue to operate. Additionally, you’ll have to wait if you’re thinking of visiting the transfer stations or landfill; they’re all taking Thanksgiving off and starting up again the following day.
