Local closings, cancellations, and postponements

Like many other communities across the country, the City of Nevada is monitoring the spread of the Coronavirus. We are working with our regional, state and federal partners to ensure that we are prepared for the spread of this disease. Citizens and staff are encouraged to take all steps possible to keep themselves healthy, including regular handwashing, cleaning surfaces that come into contact with your hands, coughing/sneezing into your elbow, getting vaccinated against the seasonal flu, and limiting interactions with others when you are sick.

Should you have questions or concerns the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services activated a statewide public hotline for citizens, 877-435-8411.
