Rosemead announces closure of all city facilities

Rosemead City Manager Gloria Molleda confirmed that all city facilities will be closed to the general public beginning January 4, 2022, due to increased COVID-19 cases throughout the city and county.

All facilities will remain closed and are projected to open again on January 18, 2022. All essential city functions will continue.

“The safety and health of our city employees and community members continue to be our top priority,” said Molleda. “For these reasons, we will plan to close all city facilities. This temporary closure will allow for essential services to continue while minimizing the spread and transmission of COVID-19.”

The city will continue to provide its Drive-thru Lunch Program for Seniors on Mondays and Wednesdays at 11:30 a.m. at the Garvey Community Center. It will also continue to take payments via “Drop off Box” or by appointment only at City Hall (626-569-2100) and Public Safety Center (626-569-2272).

All winter recreation classes will be postponed for a week and will resume on January 18, 2022.

Los Angeles County is offering a Home Test Collection program to all residents with an at-home testing nasal swab kit. They are provided at no cost if you meet the following criteria: have developed COVID-19 symptoms or think you were exposed to COVID-19.
