The City of Statesville is making preparations to open city’s facilities in compliance with Phase 2 of Gov. Cooper’s modification of the state’s Stay At Home order.

Major changes include the re-opening of City Hall to the public, the planned opening of the Statesville Leisure Pool and Splash Pad on June 5, and the operation of a day camp by the Recreation & Parks Department. More information on the pool and splash pad openings and summer camp schedule will be released before June 5.

The customer services offices will remain closed. Utility payments will continue to be taken at the drive-thru lanes at 301 S. Center Street.

Playground equipment will remain closed, but groups up to 25 may reserve outdoor shelters in the City parks.

Phase 2 will commence on Tuesday, May 26, 2020.
