The courthouse, road department and animal shelter in Rowan County closed Monday due to coronavirus concerns.
Rowan County Judge Executive Harry Clark says three county employees have tested positive already, but all will be tested this week to provide a baseline of information so they can make informed decisions.
Clark says the courthouse facilities will be cleaned starting Tuesday.
Clark says calls to the courthouse offices will be forwarded to employee homes, so that county business can still be conducted while the offices are closed.
