The mayor said the town's spring line was broken in five spots and clogged in four after recent flooding, and has been repaired and awaits flushing, chlorination and testing.

A water leak at Main Street and 100 South awaits repair and the board will ask UDOT whether the sidewalk repair is its responsibility.

Discussed
The contractor is expected the following week to finish road repairs. A board member raised concerns about the high school's watering running down Main Street and the mayor will talk to the superintendent; adding a meter at the school was discussed. Dumpster-area cameras were also discussed.
