One-Day Closure Allows for Repairs

        JEFFERSON CITY -- Director of Revenue Trish Vincent announced today all license offices will be closed on Saturday, December 17.  The Office of Administration has required facility maintenance at the Harry S Truman State Office Building in Jefferson City, which mandates an electrical shutdown that will impact the statewide driver and licensing system and prohibits offices statewide from completing customer transactions.

        “I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause our customers, and I appreciate your patience with this unexpected closure,” said Vincent.

        Electricity, and therefore the statewide systems, will be shut down from Saturday, December 17, 2005 from 6 a.m. to midnight.  Office hours for the week of Monday, Dec. 19 will not be affected.
