Brick officials announced Sunday night that the township’s municipal offices would close to the public until further notice due to concerns over the spread of the coronavirus.
Offices will, however, remain open to staff members, who will be available by phone and email. Township staff will accommodate any need that requires direct interaction and is time sensitive, officials said in the announcement.
Public Works services – sanitation and recycling collection – will continue as normal, said Mayor John Ducey.

The precaution is being implemented “to protect the citizens of Brick Township and the municipal staff,” Ducey said.

The CDC recommends a six-foot buffer in all social settings.
