PORT ORCHARD — The City of Port Orchard is advising residents that due to escalating COVID-19 numbers, many of its departments are operating with reduced staffing levels.
Because of the staffing shortage, officials are encouraging those needing to transact business with city departments to use online services, email or the telephone instead of visiting City Hall in person. If a personal visit is essential, officials said that a mask is required at any city facility.
