Princeton municipal departments now open by appointment

Princeton residents who need to do business at any of the municipality’s offices can now make appointments with various departments.

No walk-ins are allowed. All visits are by appointment only, and each department schedules its own appointments. The recreation department is the one exception. Walk-ins are welcome during business hours, which are 1 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday and Friday, and 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Wednesday. Starting on March 22, the recreation department will be open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays.

Visitors to municipal offices must wear masks to enter buildings. The buildings will stay locked. When you arrived for your scheduled appointment, a visitor will meet you at the entrance closest to the department, and you will be escorted to the office.

Workers will wear gloves, the work areas will be cleaned and disinfected thoroughly, and social distancing will be enforced.

Residents who have a cough, congestion, chills, a headache, muscle pain, a sore throat, a loss of taste or smell, digestive problems, shortness of breath, fatigue, nausea, or temperature of 100.4 or higher are asked not to schedule appointments to come in until those symptoms are gone. If you are under quarantine or a close contact of someone with a positive COVID-19 test or you are awaiting the results of a COVID-19 test, you should also hold off on scheduling an appointment.

The town will update its quarantine policies when the CDC issues new guidance regarding quarantining policies for people who are fully vaccinated.
