The City of Carrollton remains in daily contact with health officials from Dallas, Denton, and Collin Counties as well as the Texas Department of State Health Services.
The City of Carrollton is committed to partnering with Carrollton businesses to follow the reopening recommendations issued by the Governor’s Strike Force to Open Texas and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), to help ensure the safety of residents, employees, and visitors.
Whereas virtual services are strongly encouraged and remain available 24/7, the City has reopened limited public access to City Hall, Municipal Court, Carrollton Animal Services & Adoption Center, Crosby and Rosemeade Recreation Centers, Josey Ranch Lake and Hebron & Josey Libraries, A.W. Perry Homestead Museum, McInnish and Rosemeade Dog Parks, Oak Creek Tennis Center and satellite courts, Indian Creek Golf Club, playgrounds and public restrooms, sports fields, outdoor basketball courts, the Rosemeade Rainforest Aquatic Complex, and Oak Hills and W.J. Thomas Splash Parks, in accordance with State orders. The City is taking measures to help keep residents, visitors, and employees safe, such as operating facilities at reduced occupancy rates.
As the City of Carrollton provides government continuity, it is simultaneously committed to helping ensure our citizens and our more than 850 employees stay safe. Using guidance and best practices from the CDC, the City is performing enhanced cleanings of high-touch areas and putting safety measures in place such as installing sneeze guards at countertops to protect employees and the public, making hand sanitizer stations available, and applying floor decals to assist employees and customers with proper social distancing. Additionally, staff attendants at each reopened facility are monitoring the occupancy and regularly wiping down and disinfecting frequently used surfaces. The City asks all employees and guests to stay home if symptomatic and encourages all high-risk citizens to utilize virtual services when possible.
The Senior Center remains closed. Gov. Greg Abbott has encouraged those 65 years and older to stay home as much as possible. However, Senior Center memberships are temporarily valid at Crosby and Rosemeade Recreation Centers.
Emergency services are uninterrupted. The Carrollton Police, Fire, and Public Works Departments are fully operational and have protocols in place to protect first responders so they can continue to serve the City of Carrollton.
