(Seguin) — Local, state, and federal offices will all be closed on Friday recognition of the New Year’s holiday. Seguin Public Information Officer Jennifer Sourdellia says all city offices will be closed in observance of the holiday, and it will also cause a disruption in the city’s regular garbage collection schedule.
“City offices will be closed on Friday, January 1 for New Year’s Day. We will not have garbage collection that day, neither will we have recycle or brush collection. If you have Friday garbage collection, that’s going to be moved over to Saturday. So it’s going to be delayed by one day,” said Sourdellia.
Most business offices are also closed on Friday for the holiday, including our offices here at KWED and the Seguin Daily News.
One group that won’t be off the clock this holiday weekend, will be law enforcement officers at the Seguin Police Department, the Guadalupe County Sheriff’s Office and the Texas Highway Patrol Office in Seguin. The officers, deputies and troopers will be out in force, especially Thursday night and Friday morning, looking for speeders, drunk drivers and for people who are not wearing a seat belt. Many people will be staying in this New Year Eve because of the pandemic, but if you decide to go out, law enforcement officials say it’s important that you have a plan for getting home safely.
