September 26, 2011

It has been a very busy two weeks.  Two weeks ago the Utah League of Cities and Towns held their annual fall conference in Salt Lake City.  The conference addressed multiple issues, including economic development, taxing issues, development for small cities, GRAMA, and other topics important to cities and towns.  Last week I attended the Rural Smart Grid Summit held in Bonita Springs, Florida.  This summit was focused on the development and implementation of smart meters and smart grids.  Smart meters allow for two way communication between the utility and the meter.  The whole electrical grid system is changing and it was great to gain information on cutting edge technologies available for grid systems.   

Payment Drop Box

For all those who place their utility payments in the outside drop box it has been moved to a new location.  It is now in the east parking lot behind the city building.  We hope this change allows for less congestion in the alley way (where it was previously) and should be easier to keep snow and ice cleared away from around the box. 

Primary Elections September 13, 2011

To all Ephraim City Residents:  The 2011 primary elections are being held September 13, 2011 at the Ephraim Senior Center.  Polls will open at 8:00 am and close at 8:00 pm. 

Early Voting

Just a reminder that early voting has begun.  To cast an early ballot come to City Hall between the hours of 8:00 am and 5:00 pm Monday through Friday.  We have nine candidates and you will cast a vote for three and the top six will move on past the primary election (September 13, 2011) to the general election where the final three candidates will be voted for.
