Message from Price City Mayor Terry Willis

It’s been a few months since the last update. Price City has been very busy as we  transition from winter to spring.

The Carbon Avenue Canal project was finished a little early and came in under  budget. We can give a little credit for a mild winter, but most of the kudos go to  our staff for staying on top of this project and finding solutions for problems as  they surfaced.

Over the Easter weekend our crews were faced with three major water breaks due  to a pressure valve failure. The crews worked through the night to address the  problem and take care of the broken pipes in a methodical manner that made sure  we didn’t have further pipe damage.

Pedestrian safety has stayed an important piece of what we are working on. We  have added signs that are installed in many cross walks reminding drivers that it is  state law to stop for pedestrians in the cross walks. Flashing stop signs are installed  at the 100 North 400 East intersection are a great improvement.

Finally, as we move into the summer months, I want to remind everyone that water  conservation is all of our responsibility. Please check out our water wise link on  the www.priceutah.gov website. We can get through this drought if we work  together and make sure we are all doing our part.
