Public Works Week is May 20th-26th.  Perry City would like to thank our public works staff for all they do for our community!

VOLUNTEERS WANTED- We’re gearing up for another great Perry City 4th of July Celebration! The theme this year is “Sweet Land of Liberty.” We are in need of event chairman, volunteers, and vendors in order to have the best 4th event yet.  For more information on how you can help, please go to our webpage: www.perrycity.org or call the Perry City offices at 435-723-6461.

It’s time to start thinking about 4th of July softball. There will only be 10 teams playing. Please contact Paul Nelson at 435-230-0343. Paul will take calls until Friday, June 15th.

The Perry City Green Waste will opened this year on Friday May 4th. We will be open Fridays and Saturdays only through the month of May. Then we will close until further notice in the fall.  Fridays:       3 PM—7 PM Saturdays:  10 AM—2 PM.

Three Mile Creek Shooting complex has opened on May 5th.  For more information, go to Perrycity.org

Perry City has detention basins that help to contain run off water in our City.  Some of these detention     basins are being filled with lawn clippings, tree limbs, etc. This makes it hard for the water to flow through the basins and as a result they get plugged.  Perry City Public Works has put “No Dumping” signs on the outside of the fences surrounding the basins. These detention basins are private and considered trespassing for illegal dumping which could lead to a citation. Please help us to keep the basins clean, by taking care of your green waste and other debris. Perry City Residents can use the green waste site for their dumping. 

Important Announcements from UDOT - Hwy 89 and 750 North Project  

This project is located at the Willard exit where you turn to go to the Bay or get on the freeway. With all the accidents that have been involved with this intersection, UDOT has a project planned to install a stoplight and turning lanes at 750 North and Hwy 89 in 2018. They will also be resurfacing Hwy 89. The final engineering is being completed and the project will be put out for bid.  We are fast approaching road construction season all over!!!! Please use caution around construction and SLOW DOWN for the safety of construction workers.

School is just about over for the 2017-18 year, and with that we need to be even more cautious with more kids out walking, riding, and playing in the neighborhoods. Please take an extra minute to walk all the way around your vehicle looking for toys and children. Even if you don’t have kids yourself, children just don’t see the danger getting a ball out from under the car without help.

It is motorcycle riding time, so we all need to be more aware of our driving habits. NO distracted driving: put the phone down. Look, listen, and look again!!! Nobody wants to be the one to hit someone riding a motorcycle, bike, person or even another vehicle. We are heading into the 100 most dangerous days. PLEASE leave early and be hypervigilant in driving and being aware what’s going on around us.
