Public Works

Tree Trimming - We would like to remind residents to keep their trees and bushes trimmed back to not obscure traffic signs and sidewalks. Limbs need to be trimmed to 15 feet above streets, 9 feet above sidewalks and bushes trimmed back one foot from the sidewalks.

Construction Projects - Work will begin on March 19th to replace a section of waterline on the west side of Main Street from 1425 North to 1675 North. The southbound lane will be closed for the duration of the project, which is expected to last 30-45 days, depending upon conditions. UDOT has ongoing work on I-15 between exits 334 & 335, which is expected to last another 90 days with construction zones restricted to two lanes. More information on I-15 construction is available on UDOTs webside www.udot.gov/115lanegain
