What's Open, Closed For César Chávez Day Holiday

Cesar Chavez, the head of the United Farm Workers Union, calls for the resignation of Walter Kintz, the first legal counsel for the state Agriculture Labor Relations Board, in Sacramento, Calif., on Sept. 16, 1975. Chavez's efforts in California culminated in landmark legislation that protected the rights of the state's farmworkers and created the ALRB.

Most San Diego city and county offices will be closed Wednesday in observance of the César Chávez Day holiday.

While San Diego city offices will be closed Wednesday, the city's trash, recycling and yard-waste pickups will follow a normal schedule all week. The Miramar Landfill and Miramar Recycling Center will be open, but sales and pickup of waste containers will be closed.

Emergency services provided by the city's police and fire departments and the county sheriff's office will not be affected by holiday closures. But non-emergency services provided by the same agencies will not be available.

San Diego County offices, libraries and animal shelters will be closed to the public, though emergency animal services will be available.

Most county parks will be open, but visitors are advised to check the hours for individual destinations.
