Brigham City Public Power is aware of a power outage in the Northeast side of town. Our crews are on their way to troubleshoot . Any updates will be posted on the Brigham City App and Brigham City Facebook page.
You may notice the flag at Rees Pioneer Park is missing. Due to lack of lighting, we will be removing the flag for safe keeping until construction for the overpass has completed.
The flyers left on many garbage cans after pickup today are NOT from Brigham City and it is NOT a city-sponsored program. We are working to identify the person or organization distributing these flyers to make sure in the future they comply with city ordinances.
Double pickup starts next week! Leave your cans out the weekday after your regular day for a second pickup.
If your regular day is Friday, put your cans out again on Monday.
If your regular day is Monday, put your cans out again on Tuesday.
If your regular day is Tuesday, put your cans out again on Wednesday.

Our Emergency Preparedness challenge month is almost over! This month we've talked about community groups that offer aid or help train us for emergencies, and we've talked about three major emergency events that we worry about in this area: fires, earthquakes, and floods.
Why not spend some time this weekend preparing your home and yard for the possibility of flooding? You still have an opportunity to enter this week's drawing by making sure your gutters, downspouts, drains, and/or canal banks are clear so water can freely flow. Take a picture of any of those things and submit it at https://bcutah.sjc1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_0VbP8vcPajT2Cwe.
Just like most homeowners and renters insurance policies don't cover earthquakes, most of them don't cover flooding from water outside your home. Some homeowners are required to purchase flood insurance because of where they live. Others may choose to for their peace of mind. If you are interested in flood insurance, start at https://www.floodsmart.gov/ to get answers to your questions and find a list of providers.
The challenge for this week is to make sure your gutters, downspouts, drains, and/or canal banks are clear to facilitate water flow. Submit a picture of any of those things at https://bcutah.sjc1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_0VbP8vcPajT2Cwe.
We talked a few weeks ago about a 96-hour kit or a disaster supply kit. These are typically understood to be suitable for grabbing on your way out of the house in the case of an evacuation. Sometimes, however, you'll have to rely on what you already have at home for several days due to flooding in surrounding areas, utilities being cut off, or higher demand on local stores due to an emergency.
Keep a supply of non-perishable food, cleaning and hygiene supplies, and water—enough for several days for everyone in the household (including pets!).
For this week's challenge, ensure your gutters, downspouts, drains, and/or canal banks are clear. Take a picture of any of those things and submit it at https://bcutah.sjc1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_0VbP8vcPajT2Cwe.
