SCAM - A person came into the City Office terrified with their phone on speaker. A man had called her and claimed to be part of a law enforcement investigation team. There was a murder in Texas and they found this person's blood at the scene. The man threatened the person with arrest. This person had never been in Texas and legitimate investigations will work with local law enforcement not call over the phone and threaten. They will fool you by giving you bits of personal information such as your address or sometimes the last 4 digits of your Social Security Number and asking you to verify the rest. Do not give out personal information. Don't be fooled by phone scams claiming they have your children or grandchildren or that you will be arrested. HANG UP! Once you respond they will continue to call and become more aggressive. Generally the call originates from another country and ends up with you wiring or purchasing cards from a local retailer. Contact Box Elder County Dispatch to report fraud at 435-734-3800.
The Fall open burn period is from September 15 – October 30. Extremely dry conditions still exist, but rain may be heading our way!

CERT - It’s never too early to plan for emergencies, but it is all too often too late. CERT Classes are scheduled to begin October 30, and will continue on November 1st, 3rd, 6th, 8th and 10th. Weekday classes are from 6:00 pm -9:30 pm and Saturday classes are from 8:00 am – 4:00 pm. This is great information to help your family become prepared when an emergency hits. An emergency can be as little as the power being out for more than a couple of hours or the water turned off because of a line break to a major disaster such as an earthquake. Are you prepared???
