(KNSI) – Benton County officials say their offices will face temporary phone service disruptions next week.
The interruptions are due to the county transitioning to a new telephone service provider, and it couldn’t be done outside of business hours.
On Monday, August 12th, and Tuesday, August 13th, from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m., calls to the county offices, including the non-emergency line, may not go through. The 911 emergency services line will remain fully operational.
