Happy Thanksgiving!
Wednesday, November 24, 2021 by Elizabeth Pagano
In observance of Thanksgiving, the Austin Monitor will be taking Thursday and Friday off. We’ll resume our normal publishing schedule bright and early Monday morning. Joining us on the holiday weekend will be the bulk of the city’s offices and facilities, as outlined in this news release. Notably, trash and recycling pickups originally scheduled for Thursday will slide to Friday. Austin Public Health Covid testing and vaccine sites will be closed Nov. 25-28, and the Covid dashboard will not be updated until Monday. Questions about city services can be directed to 311, which will remain in operation. Have a safe and happy holiday!
