@MaxedoutUtah We've reduced the outage to about 25 to 30 homes - if your luck is like mine, you're one of those still out.😬 Again our apologies.

@sampsthechamp Feel free to call - the City does no maintenance there, as it is school district property. Thanks for thinking of us! 801 336-3822, Steve.

#Prepare for a gas leak: After a disaster, look, smell, and listen for leaky gas connections. If you believe there’s a gas leak, IMMEDIATELY leave your home and contact the gas utility. Keep the doors open when you leave. Learn more from @DominionEnergy: https://t.co/8uasOubfOu

It's no secret that it's HOT outside. That can be dangerous for people, young and old. Take a minute to check on your elderly family members and neighbors. Make sure they are keeping their homes cool. We appreciate @NWSSaltLakeCity for important weather watches and warnings.
