While their long-term future remains unclear, a little more life has been breathed into ServiceOntario locations in Chatham and Dresden.
The two offices have had their contracts extended.
The Chatham ServiceOntario contract has been extended to October 31, 2023, while the contract for the Dresden office now runs through the end of the year.
Both locations have faced the threat of closure over the past few years. The Dresden office is housed within with the municipal service centre, which was listed as underutilized in a recent service review.
Chatham-Kent officials say the extensions allow the municipality to continue working with provincial partners to offer a one stop shopping type of experience for many provincial and municipal services.
Customers are encouraged to visit the Service Ontario website www.serviceontario.ca for up-to-date office hours.
