Minden, Nevada – In response to the recent recommendations by Governor Sisolak regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, the Town of Minden is making changes to services and staffing.  Effective March 17, 2020, the Town Administrative Offices will not be open to public for walk-in services until May 1, 2020. For residents and customers who need assistance, please call our offices to set up an appointment before arriving in person. Administration/General Information: (775) 782-5976 or info@townofminden.com

Due to minimal staffing, street sweeping and the residential dumpster program will be suspended until the week of May 1, 2020. All other trash/water services will remain in effect and scheduled as usual.

The Town is working closely with Douglas County with this ever changing situation. The Town Board and Staff are thankful for your patience and hope you know that our number one priority is to protect our residents, continuity of essential Town operations, effective communication, and to support the County during this time.
