Municipal Offices to Resume Normal Operations Monday, May 11th

The Town of Shaftsbury is pleased to announce that internet and phone services are now operational at our new Municipal Offices located at 677 Route 7A (the former Shaftsbury Medical Building).

Following a temporary period of remote operations caused by delays in service installation, municipal staff will officially resume normal in-person operations beginning Monday, May 11, 2026.

Town departments will once again be available for regular business services during normal office hours at the new location.

We sincerely appreciate the patience, understanding, and support shown by our residents throughout this transition process. We are excited to begin this next chapter in our new municipal space and look forward to serving the community from our updated offices.

Thank you again for your continued cooperation and support.
