City parks and Playgrounds Closed

Out of an abundance of caution amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the public playgrounds and parks in Remsen are closed effective immediately, until further notice. The City of Remsen does not have an effective way to fully sanitize the playground equipment to keep everyone safe. We need to discourage groups of people from congregating and with the warmer temperatures, closing the parks is a necessary precaution that needs to be taken. This is not a decision that was taken lightly, please know that it was done with the safety of the public in mind. The walking trail will remain open during this time.

Changes due to COVID-19 Virus

The City of Remsen will be making some changes to the way we operate out of caution for the public and the threat of the COVID-19 virus. Beginning tomorrow, March 17, 2020, the lobby at City Hall will be closed to the public and we ask that payments be made by using the drop box. City Hall employees will be in the office during normal operating hours and available to answer questions and conduct other business. The Remsen Public Library will also be closed until further notice.
