COVID outbreak alters county office

An outbreak of COVID-19 among employees in the office of Oconee Treasurer has shortened available staff and has resulted in the temporary closing of the Pine Street office for in-person payments, 101.7/WGOG NEWS learned this morning from a source within county government.  However, taxpayers doing business with the treasurer’s office have other options including mail payments and the drive-thru which operates Monday through Friday 8:30 am to 5 pm.
