Red Deer City Hall will be back open for business as of 8 am this morning (Nov 10th).

City Hall was closed as a precautionary measure after lunch yesterday after a package of drugs, left by a member of the public, was found inside the building.

Staff was evacuated for the remainder of the day as Emergency Services cleaned the building to ensure there was no residue left behind from the package.

Security was on site at both the east and west entrances during the closure.
