in an effort to limit exposure to the staff and members of the Local Union, we
will be limiting access to the hall to five (5) people at a time. We are still
open. There is no change to our hours of operation, but the doors will be
locked and we will answer the door individually. We strongly encourage members
to conduct any business by mail, fax, phone, or online at this time. There is
no change to the referral procedure.
Also, in compliance with the latest County order, anyone wishing to conduct business at the Local Union hall will need to have a cloth face covering.
