MILLCREEK. Spring is finally warming up, and with this winter's snowstorms, we are all understandably concerned about flooding. You can determine if your property is located in a floodplain by using the Maps feature on our website. Go to millcreek.us Click on the round "Maps" button underneath the main picture on the front page In the Map Gallery, click on the map on the left named "Millcreek Resident Information" If a splash screen pops up, dismiss it by clicking "Continue" Go to the left side of the page where it lists "Layers," and uncheck the "City Council Districts" and "Millcreek Parcels" boxes ---PAGE BREAK--- City Hall, 3330 S 1300 E Or join virtually HERE Agenda below Find the eighth box down that says "Effective Floodplains" and check the box Type your address into the white search box in the top left corner of the map We are doing our best to prepare for flooding. We need everyone's help! If you live along a creek, it is imperative that you remove anything (firewood, furniture, vegetation, etc.) that could be washed if the creek were to rise to overflow its banks. This is to prevent clogged culverts, which could cause flooding of your or your neighbors' properties. Please clean out the street gutters next to your property to prevent the debris from clogging the storm drains It would be very helpful if you would clear debris from the nearby storm drains. If you see one that needs the city's attention, please let us know at [PHONE REDACTED]. If you are located in a floodplain and you feel your property may be in danger of flooding, we encourage you to pick up sandbags at the locations listed below. Even if you are not located in a flood plain, but are at risk for creek flooding or have had any experience with high water or have concerns, you are welcome to pick up some sandbags and have them ready to place if trouble spots start to appear. If you are a new resident and unsure if your property has had creek flooding in the past, ask a neighbor who may have lived in the neighborhood as long ago as the 1983 floods if there were problems on your property or call the city at [PHONE REDACTED]. ---PAGE BREAK--- ASSIST YOUR NEIGHBORS We are getting calls from residents who feel their property is in danger of flooding but are physically unable to pickup or place sandbags. The city does not have the capability to assist all of these residents. If you feel your property needs some sandbags but are physically unable to do the work yourself, please call the city offices at [PHONE REDACTED] and let us know what you need. ---PAGE BREAK--- If you have some time to help one of your neighbors or know of an organization which could help, please let us know by contacting Rita Lund, [EMAIL REDACTED], [PHONE REDACTED]. . We will do our best to match residents with volunteer help but cannot guarantee that we can take care of all needs. ---PAGE BREAK--- The city held a very successful volunteer sandbagging event last weekend at the salt pile location at 3900 S Wasatch Blvd. and will be holding another event TOMORROW, Saturday, April 8th from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. (or until resources run out). We would like to track all volunteer hours, so have created a volunteer event for you to reserve a time to fill bags for yourself and your neighbors. Please visit our event HERE to reserve your timeslot. Please bring your own shovels, work gloves, and eye protection. Bottled water will be provided. Parking will be limited so carpool if you can. Additional parking will be available along Virginia Way. If you have any questions, please contact: Millcreek Emergency Manager Andrew Cark, [PHONE REDACTED], [EMAIL REDACTED]. REMEMBER - VERY IMPORTANT!! PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO CLEAR OUT ANY STORM DRAINS NEAR YOUR PROPERTY!! Getting the snow melt into the storm drains is the best way to protect your property and those downhill. STAY AWAY FROM STREAMS!! They are running fast and deep, people and pets can get swept away in just seconds. CLEAN DEBRIS AWAY FROM STREAMS IF POSSIBLE!! If a stream runs along your property and you notice debris (logs, lawn furniture, firewood, etc.) that may wash into and clog culverts, if you are able please clear it out. If you notice a serious problem that should be inspected, call the city offices at [PHONE REDACTED]. If you see something-say something. ---PAGE BREAK--- ---PAGE BREAK--- MILLCREEK COMMON IS BEST OF STATE 2023 MILLCREEK.

Last year, the Utah State Legislature passed House Bill 462 requiring that municipalities update the moderate-income housing elements of their general plans. The bill ensures that each city is planning for and reducing barriers to moderate income housing. It also requires municipalities that have a fixed guideway public transit station (like Trax) to develop and adopt a station area plan (SAP) for the area within 1/2 mile of the station. ---PAGE BREAK--- Millcreek has two SAPs, one at 3900 S (Meadowbrook) and the other at the Murray North UTA Trax station, which is in Murray at about 44th South but very close to Millcreek's boundary (making Millcreek within the 1/2 mile SAP). Millcreek and Murray have have therefore teamed up to create a plan for the area. (Planning for the Meadowbrook SAP will begin shortly, in coordination with South Salt Lake.) An open house to discuss the Murray North SAP will be held on April 27th from 6-8 PM at Birkhill Apartments (16 E Gilbride Ave, Murray). Click here for more information and ways to get involved and provide feedback. More Help Needed For the Temporary Homeless Shelter MILLCREEK.
