Vital Records to be Regularly Issued Again Following End of Paper Shortage

By Bay City News Service

The Solano County Assessor/Recorder’s Office announced on Tuesday that it has resumed regular issuing of birth, death and marriage certificates to the public after a temporary nationwide shortage of banknote paper.

The shortage apparently began earlier this summer, and limited walk-in customers at the county office to just one vital record per visit.

That limitation is now being removed, as the office has received its first shipment of the paper used for these records.

“I want to thank the public for their patience and understanding,” Solano county Assessor/Recorder Marc Tonnesen said in a statement.
