Laurinburg—The North Carolina Governor’s Office and Scotland County Government have issued a State of Emergency due to the COVID-19 Virus. Due to the restrictions associated with this State of Emergency, Scotland County Government buildings implemented the following proactive measures on March 18, 2020 to limit further transmission of the Coronavirus known as COVID-19:

 •          Individuals will only be allowed to enter the County Offices if they have an appointment.

•           Before visiting a Scotland County Department in person, individuals should call the desired department to determine if alternative service options are available or to schedule an appointment.  A department email directory can be found on the County website at www.scotlandcounty.org

•           Citizens should use any online services that may be available for County Department services.

•           If you need to make a payment for taxes and do not have availability to online payment, please use the drop box at the tax office located at 507 Covington Street.

Also, the BLUE line SCATS route is suspending service until further notice.  Medical Transportation will not be impacted.  The landfill, transfer station, and convenience sites remain open at this time.
