Essex MPP closes office amid COVID-19 pandemic

Safety precautions regarding COVID-19 are causing MPP Taras Natyshak to close his office temporarily.

On Saturday, Natyshak announced that he will close his constituency office in Essex for the next several days.

"Out of an abundance of caution and in the interest of the safety of our community and my constituency office team, our Community Office in Essex will be closed for in-person visits for the coming week," he said. "I will continue to monitor the situation and seek the input of public health officials on the need to keep this protocol in place for the following weeks."

Natyshak asks that any inquiries be sent via email or phone, adding that both lines of communication will be checked frequently during the closure.
