This is a time for all communities, families, and individuals to focus on preparing, not panicking. We must work together to protect those in our community who are most at risk of severe disease, particularly the elderly and people with underlying health conditions.


The Alamosa Police Department has closed the in-person request window at the Police Department (425 4th Street) to adhere to social distancing recommendations and to minimize exposure to COVID-19.  You can help maximize our accessibility to you during these restrictions by making requests for police reports via email, mail, or phone.

The Alamosa Municipal Court remains open and dockets are still to proceed as scheduled. However, we understand the concern about COVID-19 and request the following:

For those who are scheduled to appear for Court, the following will apply:

  1. Social distancing is encouraged and courtroom access will be limited to only those who are required to be there. (i.e., Defendant, Witnesses, Attorneys). All others will not be permitted in and should stay home or wait outside City Hall.
  2. If any scheduled defendants have concerns regarding exposure to COVID-19, they may request to continue their case or appear by telephone. Please contact the court at (719) 589-2272.
