One item stood out among the regular business facing the Price City Council on Wednesday, Dec. 10, as the body grappled with providing an airspace permit for Santa Claus for his annual trip around the globe.

Bringing the item to discussion, Councilmember Layne Miller asked for clarification on whether this permit would allow Claus to land on roofs or simply hover over them. Councilmember Joe Christman remarked that Miller was “definitely on the naughty list,” with Councilmember Terry Willis adding, “I told you, you’re not getting a landing.”

When put to a vote, the council unanimously approved the permit.

“During the regular meeting of the price city council held on Dec. 10, 2025, the price city council authorized Mayor Michael Kourianos to sign and issue an air space permit to Santa Claus for delivery of toys and goodies to Price City area children late on the night of Dec. 24 and the early morning hours of Dec. 25,” reads a release from the city announcing the permit.
