What's Closed for MLK Day Locally?

We've compiled a list of closings in observance of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day on Monday.

All federal, state and local government offices as well as banks will be closed on Monday Jan. 21 in honor of the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. holiday.

The city of Roswell and the Fulton County government will be closed for the holiday. Roswell residents who utilize the city's sanitation services can expect yard waste removal as usual for Monday customers. The Roswell Recycling Center will be closed on Monday.
