(LaPorte, IN) - La Porte Mayor, Tom Dermody, announced that City Hall in LaPorte will be physically closed to the public through March 31st due to coronavirus.  It will continue to conduct business by telephone and e-mail only.

Dermody says residents are asked to pay their water bills online at https://laportein.authoritypay.com/ or drop payments into boxes outside city hall.  Other payment arrangements can be made by calling the billing department (219)362-3175 or by emailing grobles@cityoflaportein.gov .  He says residents with late payments will not have their water disconnected during this period.

Tonight’s City Council meeting will go on as scheduled but Dermody expects that meeting

to be short.
