3 issues in public safety with medium priority
Off-season fireworks notifications at Friendship Park
Residents living behind Friendship Park asked how to get advance notice of permitted off-season fireworks displays after a loud Halloween event surprised them. Council and staff noted no notice was provided and may add a flyer or posting option.
Fire Department Equipment and Maintenance
The council approved a maintenance discount on fire trucks and a purchase agreement for a new engine for Station 82 — but delivery takes about 4.5 years, so the maintenance contract keeps the current engine running until then.
Mosquito Abatement and West Nile Virus
A dry year kept mosquitoes down, but West Nile virus has appeared — two human cases in Weber County. The district is treating more storm drains and breeding its own mosquito fish, which residents can get free for backyard ponds.
