FERNDALE CITY HALL

Effective Wednesday, April 7, 2021 Ferndale City Hall will be closed to the public. City Hall will remain closed through the end of April. The decision to close was made in response to the widespread increase of COVID-19 infection rates in our area, as a precautionary measure to keep Ferndale's community members and staff safe. COVID cases have been spiking in metro Detroit and Oakland County, with numbers steadily climbing since mid-March. Oakland County now has the third-highest infection rate since the virus began last spring, with more than 1,500 new cases per day. Given this information, and out of an abundance of precaution for the Ferndale community, City leadership believes it prudent to do what is necessary to help slow the spread.

• Staff will continue to work as usual and all City Hall services will remain available to the community digitally.
• Payments, billing requests, and other utility services are available online at our digital payment and transaction page. Keep in mind that payments can be accepted via the drop-box at the front of the building. (Please do not send cash through the drop-box; checks and money orders only.)
