PORTSMOUTH, Ohio — The city’s Department of Finance and Income Tax Division will close for several days next month as the offices relocate from their longtime home on Washington Street to a new building on Gallia Street, the city said in a Facebook post.
The offices will close Thursday, Dec. 3, Friday, Dec. 4, and again Monday, Dec. 7, reopening Tuesday, Dec. 8, at 805 Gallia St., according to the city. The Income Tax Division has operated out of 605 Washington St. for years; both offices will now share the third floor of the Gallia Street building, with the Department of Finance in Suite 326 and the Income Tax Division in Suite 342.
The public entrance to the building will be on the Esplanade side, with elevators located on the 6th Street side, the city said.
The move adds finance and tax operations to a building that already houses other city functions. The city’s Public Utilities office occupies the first floor at 805 Gallia St., and the Portsmouth Police Department’s records bureau relocated to the building’s basement earlier this month.
The information contained in this story was obtained from the City of Portsmouth.
