This is a Green Waste Clean Up Only.

A quick note from Mayor Brent Chugg:
“We are in the midst of the autumn season, a time when leaves are changing color, sweater weather is approaching after the heat of summer, and there are endless festive things to do this time of the year. Autumn is a time to appreciate nature with its color variations. I am not looking forward to the cold weather that follows, but Fall is a great time of year.
The changing seasons we all enjoy in the midst of the mountains bring on a new look and feel of comfort. There is some extra work of raking leaves, but North Ogden City has made it easier with the vacuum truck that comes by and picks them up, thanks to our great Public Works Department. Despite the changing weather, there are opportunities to hike or just take a ride through the country. The kids are excited about Halloween and all its activities and treats.
It is important to maintain a balanced perspective with the season change. It is time to reflect that we as humans have no dominion over nature; we only participate in it. I hope you have an enjoyable Fall season with family and friends and recognize that we have a great place to live and raise our families.”
North Ogden has several employees to be honored this month. The first is Trent Wilkins. Trent, or “Ottis,” as his coworkers prefer to call him, has been with the City for 16 years. He is the Sanitary Sewer Superintendent. There is about 100 miles of sewer lines in the City that Trent and his staff clean, maintain, and monitor. Trent holds a Level III Waste Water Collection certificate with the State of Utah.
Bowen Koenig has only worked in the water department for nine months; however he handled a challenging week in May like a seasoned pro.
The office staff called him to notify him about the leak at 2700 N 450 E. He quickly determined the problem and shut the water main down. Bowen collected the necessary repair parts, and with assistance from the maintenance crew, got the valve fixed and restored water to the main.
The students of the month are: Sacoya Ipock, a senior at Weber High; Megan Taylor from Orion Junior High School and Raegan Rogers from North Ogden Junior High School.
