Snow! We wanted it and we got it. Now we hope our lakes and reservoirs benefit from the good year we’ve had. Read a message from Davis County Public Works related to the spring runoff and find out about events going on in Davis County this month.

A message from Davis County Public Works

This spring is shaping up to be a high runoff year as we have seen record snowpack levels. Here are a few things we can do:

  • Keep children and pets away from flood control channels.
  • Keep debris away from the stream banks. Lawn furniture, fire pits, wood, and other equipment can block water from flowing through the culverts.
  • Clear debris from storm drains and gutters near your home while water is not flowing.

If sandbags are used to protect homes from water, they should be placed near doors and window wells. Well-intended sandbags and other structures can often become a problem with fast flowing water.
If you see significant obstructions in streams or channels, contact Davis County Public Works.
