Johnson County Driver’s License Office Reopens After Temporary Closure Due to COVID-19
Johnson County, Kansas – After being closed for several weeks due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Johnson County Driver’s License Office has officially reopened its doors to the public. The office, located at 6000 Lamar Avenue in Mission, is now operating under new guidelines and safety protocols to ensure the health and safety of both employees and customers.
The decision to temporarily close the office was made in accordance with state and local health guidelines to help curb the spread of the virus. During the closure, the office underwent a deep cleaning and sanitization process to ensure that it was safe for both employees and customers to return.
Now that the office has reopened, customers can expect some changes to the way services are provided. One of the biggest changes is the requirement for all customers to wear a mask while inside the office. Additionally, customers will be asked to practice social distancing and follow any posted guidelines to help prevent the spread of the virus.
“We know that these changes may be inconvenient for some customers, but we ask for their patience and understanding as we work to keep everyone safe,” said Jennifer Smith, the office manager. “The health and safety of our employees and customers is our top priority, and we are taking every precaution necessary to ensure a safe environment for everyone.”
In addition to the new safety protocols, the office is also implementing new procedures to help streamline the process and reduce wait times for customers. One such change is the availability of online appointment scheduling, which will allow customers to book a time slot in advance to help reduce the number of people waiting in line.
“We understand that waiting in line can be frustrating, especially during these challenging times,” said Smith. “By offering online appointment scheduling, we hope to make the process easier and more efficient for our customers while also reducing the risk of exposure to the virus.”
The reopening of the Johnson County Driver’s License Office comes as welcome news to many residents who have been waiting to renew their licenses or complete other transactions. The office offers a wide range of services, including license renewals, title transfers, and vehicle registrations, all of which require an in-person visit.
“We are excited to be back open and serving the residents of Johnson County,” said Smith. “We know that many people rely on our services to conduct their daily lives, and we are committed to providing the best possible service to our customers, even during these challenging times.”
As the office continues to adjust to the new normal brought on by the pandemic, customers are encouraged to check the office’s website or call ahead to familiarize themselves with the new safety protocols and procedures. By working together and following these guidelines, the Johnson County Driver’s License Office hopes to continue serving the community in a safe and efficient manner.
“We are all in this together, and by following the guidelines and working together, we can help keep everyone safe,” said Smith. “We appreciate the understanding and cooperation of our customers as we navigate these unprecedented times and strive to provide the best service possible.”
