Sand bags for spring flooding
There is a high potential for flooding this spring. In the event of an eminent flooding situation or any type of flooding in our area, the City has acquired materials to assemble sand bags. Please contact the Public Works Department to coordinate necessary action.

Landscape Watering Schedule
Sprinkler and hose irrigation of residential landscapes is prohibited between the hours of 9 a.m. and 7 p.m. Residents are also required to water according to a prescribed schedule. Those who fail to comply with the ordinance will first be issued a warning, followed by fines for each infringement thereafter (Resolution 4-18-2006C). The City’s complete watering ordinance can be viewed here. The regulations apply to all water sources, including properties using culinary or Manila water. For more information, including watering, mowing, and fertilizing your lawn specific to North-Central Utah, click here.

Watering for new lawns
Exceptions may apply for residents with new lawns that require frequent watering for establishment purposes (within 30 days of planting), or who are hand-spot watering, testing, inspecting, and/or maintaining sprinkling systems. However, the new lawn exception does not apply during the months of July and August. Please contact the Public Works Department if a new lawn exception is needed or if you have questions specific to your system.

Weed Abatement
It’s just about time for the Weed Abatement Task Force to begin eliminating weeds throughout the City. Beginning June 1, the task force will cut weeds on properties owned by the City. Beginning June 15, if weeds on private properties have not been removed by their owners, the task force will remove them and send the property owner the bill. So please get out and remove all weeds from your properties, including unlandscaped yards, vacant lots, side yards, mow strips, etc. Questions may be directed to the Public Works Department.

Did You Know?
Before finishing a basement or making any other modifications to a home or property, a City permit is required. Some permits, like those needed for installing a fence, shed (under 200 sq.ft.), or sprinkling system, are free, but are required for location approval. For more information, please contact the Building Department.

FAQ: “Do I need a Cedar Hills business license?”
If your business lists your home in Cedar Hills as its physical location, you must obtain a Cedar Hills business license. Even if the services are not specifically conducted within the City, but your home address is used for registration with the State, you are required to have a municipal license.
