Marriott-Slaterville City History March 2017 Marriott-Slaterville Monthly History March 2017 March started out cold with snow and rain, but ended with unseasonal warmth and rain. We are anticipating spring flooding this year due to all the snow and rain we have received this winter. Residents were warned that if they have a sump pump, land drain or rain gutter connected to the sewer system [which is illegal] it is a misdemeanor resulting in a $1,000 fine. A sandbag staging area has been set up at the City Hall Park. Residents are free to use the sandbags as needed in emergencies, and are responsible to fill, load and place their own sandbags. They are asked to check public storm drains and culverts for blockages and report any flooding problems to the city. If flooding becomes severe CERT and Emergency Management crews may be activated to assist.

Citv Council Meeting - March 16. 2017 Cheri Sparks and Mercy Jacobo from Weber Human Services, spoke to the Council about Communities That Care [CTC]. This is a local coalition-based system that uses a public health approach to prevent community problems such as violence, delinquency, school drop-out and substance abuse. There is currently a matching prevention funding available through the Utah Division of Substance Abuse and Mental Health, and Weber Human Services.
