Beginning May 3, the Beverly Hills City Hall will be open to the public by appointment. Now that COVID-19 transmission rates are falling, the City Council unanimously approved a plan for the phased resumption of in-person services. City Council meetings, however, will not resume until June 15.
In order to best coordinate and prepare for the resumption of work at City Hall, the city formed various committees to develop protocols and processes for a phased return. One such entity, the Public Works Safer At Work (SAW) Committee, upgraded facilities to include 3,500 sq. ft. of acrylic shields at staff workstations and public counters, new and more efficient MERV 13 filters, and touchless faucets in staff and public restrooms. Additionally, the city has increased the frequency of cleaning of city facilities and parking structures.
