What’s closed for Prez Day?
Friday, February 17, 2023 by Tai Moses
Monday is Presidents Day, and the city (and the Monitor) will be taking the day off to enjoy a three-day weekend. (We hope you are, too!) As usual, city administrative offices and other municipal facilities will be closed Monday to observe the holiday. Most recreation centers will be closed, although city parks, golf courses, cemeteries and some pools will be open. We advise you to check austintexas.gov/parkclosures in advance to see what’s closed. Austin Resource Recovery trash, recycling and compost collections will be unaffected for the holiday. City utility customer service centers will be closed Monday, but you can make utility payments at coautilities.com. Austin Public Library, Recycled Reads Bookstore and the Austin History Center branches will be closed both Sunday and Monday. And if you’re planning on adopting a furry family member, you’ll have to wait until Tuesday since the Austin Animal Center will be closed Monday.
