Re-opening of the Town Office Building
Phase 1
The Town of Haddam will begin to re-open to the public in phases starting on June 1, 2020.
This experience has taught us that we are able to process many requests online. We would like to continue that trend, reducing the amount of traffic we normally have this time of year, in the Town Office Building. We understand some residents will want to visit in person. We will be here for you. If you haven’t signed up to receive alerts please do so at: https://www.haddam.org/subscribe Select “Town Alerts” under the “Urgent Alert” heading AND “Town News & Announcement” under the “News & Announcement” heading.
You will notice some physical changes around the TOB.
Signs will be posted on which entrances to use to enter the building. A handicap entrance is around the side of the building.
We have installed protective barriers at the counters.
Markings on the floor will show social distancing CDC guidelines. A limited number of residents will be allowed in the building at one time.
A drop box will be installed in the front of the building.
You will notice some procedural changes around the TOB.
You must wear a mask or you will not be allowed into the building.
All offices will continue to take appointments.

Beginning August 1st (due to COVID-19) a penalty fee will be charged for every month a resident is late in registering a dog.
In previous years the Clerk’s Office has called the veterinary’s office for those residents who arrived at town hall without proper paperwork for their dog. Due to current circumstances we are unable to provide that service this year. You can check with Scott Brookes or Ann Riebold by phone or email prior to your visit. They can check their records to see if your pets’ information is up to date.
If you no longer have your dog, please let us know so that we may update our records. If you have any questions or concerns regarding licensing your dog(s) please call Scott or Ann.
