Spokane: City Closures Planned for Memorial Day

~ As Memorial Day approaches, the City of Spokane has announced several closures and changes to city services in observance of the holiday. According to Erin Hut, the Communications Director for the city, these closures are necessary to allow city employees to spend time with their families and honor those who have served in the armed forces.

One of the main closures will be Spokane City Hall, along with other city facilities. This includes the Waste to Energy Facility and Spokane County Transfer Stations, which will not be accepting any garbage, recycling, or yard waste on Monday. Residents who miss their regular garbage day can report it online for collection on Saturday.

In addition, on-street parking meters and kiosks will not require payment on Memorial Day. However, it is important to note that all parking rules, including time limits, still apply even when parking is free.

All branches of the Spokane Public Library will also be closed for the holiday weekend. The Hillyard Public Library will also be closed on Friday for carpet cleaning, while the Indian Trail Public Library will be closed on Sunday for the same reason.
