The Weekend Starts Early in Clackamas County

Clackamas County logoWant to record your title and take possession of your new home on a Friday, in time for a weekend move-in? Not gonna happen if your home is located in Clackamas County, because no one will be at work to record your title.

(Cue crickets chirping)

After November 1, 2008, many Clackamas County offices are moving to a 4-day work week, with only public safety services like fire and police open on Friday. The Friday shutdown is a trial program, designed to reduce the county’s carbon footprint by minimizing employee commutes and energy costs at the county building. New hours are expected to extend from 7am to 6pm Monday through Thursday.

So, if you have a home in escrow, check your sale agreements and notify your lender to change any scheduled Friday closings. Title officers will now have to get used to a crush of panic-driven Thursday closings, instead.
