A line cut during reconstruction at the Ellis County courthouse has disconnected the county’s servers from their administrative offices, now located at the 718 Main Administrative Building.

County Treasurer Ann Pfeifer said connectivity was lost at the 718 Main building over the noon hour, and employees there are unable to process payments or conduct other business.

Offices at the former Commerce Bank building downtown include the treasurer, clerk, appraiser and registrar of deeds, among others.

“They’re diligently working on repairs,” Pfeifer said.

She said late Friday afternoon it did not appear repairs would be made before the close of business Friday, but she expected offices to be open for business at 8 a.m. Monday.
