Montgomery County Government Will Close Tomorrow (6/18/21) in Observance of Juneteenth

Earlier today President Joe Biden signed the Juneteenth National Holiday Act. Maryland Governor Larry Hogan has also declared tomorrow as a state holiday in honor of Juneteenth.

We have now been told that Montgomery County Executive Marc Elrich has made the decision to close Montgomery County Government on Friday, June 18th in observance of the holiday.

Only essential employees working onsite are expected to report to work. Essential employees who are scheduled to work remotely should observe the day as a holiday and not report to work. All other non-essential employees should not report to the office or telework.

More information will be distributed when employees are sent official notification later this afternoon.
