GO PAPERLESS, SAVE $1: We appreciate all of those who have signed up for e-billing. We encourage you to create an account for your utilities and select paperless billing, which will save the $1 service fee the city charges for paper billing. You can set up auto pay with a minimal fee. You will be directed to XPRESS website when you select the “View Bills” tab on the city’s website at www.sugarcityidaho.gov.
METER READINGS: The city will start reading meters again at the end of March. Your bill due in April will reflect the actual usage over the winter months.
Distinguished citizen and public servant awards: The city looking for nominees. Contact city hall for suggestions at 208-356-7561 or email sjones@sugarcityidaho.gov.
OVERNIGHT PARKING: Beginning March 1st, our snow ordinance will no longer be in effect. We have appreciated those cooperating in not parking on the streets this winter.
BUSINESS LICENSE REMINDER: Business licenses expired December 31st. Commercial licenses are $20.00. Home businesses are $10.00. You may send in a check to pay for your license and a new license will be mailed to you. (Do not combine with utility payment; it must be a separate check.)
SPRINKLER SYSTEMS: Backflow preventers are required on all sprinkler systems. If you didn’t have a test on your sprinkler system backflow preventer done last year, please have one done this year and return your report to City Hall or email it to ajacobson@sugarcityidaho.gov. This is necessary to ensure that contamination of the water supply will not happen in the event of a pressure loss to the water system. Even numbered addresses are to be tested this year and odd numbered address are to be tested in odd numbered years. If you have an odd numbered address and did not test last year, it needs to be tested this year also. Businesses are required to test every year. The deadline to have these completed is July 1st to avoid water services from being terminated. If you have an appointment to have your test done and it is after the 1st of July, please notify the city at ajacobson@sugarcityidaho.gov with the date it is scheduled and with whom. Thank you!
DOG LICENSES: Please come in and purchase a lifetime tag. Licenses are required. Licenses are $15.00 per pet for their lifetime. If you have a photo of your pet to put on file this would also be helpful. To avoid fines, please license your pets, keep them on a leash and remove any waste they leave anywhere along your walk.
