Versailles License Branch to have limited hours
Wanda English Burnett - Editor

The Versailles License branch will go to limited days and hours beginning October 4, according to information from Greg Cook, spokesperson for the Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles.

"Keeping it (the license branch) open five days was not feasible," noted Cook as he said decisions are made on need and efficiency.

Cook says the Versailles branch will become a satellite branch of the Jefferson County License Bureau and will operate probably three days a week, most likely Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays. He wasn't sure of the hours of operation.

While Cook said all of the present employees of the Versailles branch have been offered positions, he noted they may not be in the same capacity in which they now serve.

He further noted there is no public hearing on the decision. Versailles was one of the original license branch facilities that was slated for closure by BMV Commissioner Joel Silverman.
