HUNTSVILLE, Ala. — On May 4, 2020, the Madison County Sheriff’s Office will re-open all offices that had been temporarily closed to the public, including Pistol Permits, Records and the Criminal Investigations offices.
The Sheriff’s Office will resume normal business hours, Monday – Friday, 8:00am – 4:00pm, except for county-recognized holidays.
To reduce traffic to the offices, you are encourage to call before going because many questions and issues can be resolved over the phone.
All Madison County government buildings, including the Sheriff’s Office buildings, will still be following CDC guidelines. Access to the lobbies will be limited to two (2) citizens at a time, and they must maintain a minimum of six feet between each other. All citizens entering any Sheriff’s Office buildings must wear some type of face covering that covers the mouth and nose. This requirement is also in affect for all other Madison County government buildings until further notice.
Citizens waiting to enter buildings/lobbies will need to wait on the sidewalks outside of the buildings and stay at least six feet of separation.
Madison County Sheriff Kevin Turner said, “I want to thank everyone for their patience during this unusual time. The safety of the public and our employees is still our primary concern, and our thoughts are with those that have been directly affected by the pandemic. I want to thank all those on the front lines who have worked hard to improve and safeguard the health and safety of others. Madison County is a great community and we’ll continue to stay strong by working together”.
