LOBBY HOURS
GREENFIELD — Starting this week, the Greenfield Police Department lobby will be open from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., shifting from the previous hours of 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. This change allows the staff more time to handle additional reporting and paperwork requirements mandated by California. “We’re still here for you — just with a little more time behind the scenes to make sure we’re serving our community the best we can,” stated the department. “Thanks for understanding, and as always, we’re just a call away if you need us!”
