 ABOUT AVONDALE’S GREEN FRIDAY PROGRAM
Extended City Hall Hours to Serve our Residents
The City of Avondale has extended its official works hours to include early morning and evening times. Residents can conduct business at City Hall and City Court any time between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m. Monday through Thursday. These additional hours will allow residents to maximize their time with more flexible hours to visit City Hall. The City of Avondale prides itself on offering residents progressive services and is proud to be the first city in the metro area to implement this exciting plan.

City Hall and City Court will be closed on Fridays. However, many city services will continue to be offered on Fridays, including curbside recycling pickup, code enforcement, graffiti abatement, as well as senior and social service programs at Avondale’s community centers. The City’s two libraries will remain open six days a week. Essential police and fire services will continue to be offered seven days a week, as will calls for emergency services such as water line breaks. Customers will also be able to take advantage of on-line services such as paying their utility bill. On-line registration for recreation classes is also available.

Avondale is Focused on the Environment
Maricopa County mandates that all cities develop a Trip Reduction Program to reduce traffic impacts on air pollution and emissions in our communities. With Green Fridays, Avondale employees will be driving to and from work one day less each week, avoiding rush hour traffic and doing their part to decrease current levels of congestion and pollution. By closing City Hall on Friday, Avondale is meeting its commitment to reduce the number of employee vehicle trips to City Hall which means cleaner air for all of us.

In addition to the environmental benefits, the City anticipates saving on utility costs like electricity, heating/cooling, water usage and janitorial services by closing City Hall one day per week.
