Archived News Release: June 15, 2021 - In honor of Juneteenth, City of Ann Arbor municipal offices, including the customer service center at Larcom City Hall and the 15th Judicial District Court at the Ann Arbor Justice Center, will be closed Friday, June 18, 2021, to observe the holiday. Safety services and utility operations will maintain 24-hour schedules throughout.
Curbside trash, recycling and compost service will continue without interruption, so residents are encouraged to put out material per their normal schedule.
