AUGUSTA, Maine (AP) — Maine state offices will be closed Monday and Tuesday.

Monday’s closing is due to the Patriot’s Day holiday, and Tuesday’s a shutdown day to cut government costs.

The two closings give state workers a four-day weekend.

Tuesday’s is the ninth of 10 shutdown days between July 1, 2009, and June 30, 2010. The last shutdown day will be May 28.
