Several Clark County offices will reopen to the public on Monday, May 11, according to a statement from the county.

While some offices are reopening, social distancing guidelines will remain in place. The county has also installed barriers in certain areas to limit interaction with the public and protect employees, the statement said.

Other precautions the county will be taking include requiring everyone — employees and the public — to submit to temperature checks and wear appropriate face coverings out of respect for others, the statement said.
