Heber City Actions and Recommendations

• Residents should continue normal activity, while being mindful of our Governor’s recommendations.
• Avoid panic buying as there will be groups who will be unable to obtain even regular groceries to meet basic needs.  Be sensitive to the rest of the community and not overbuy.
• Be willing to share supplies with neighbors.
• Reach out and check with neighbors, especially those over 60 or with existing health issues.
• Heber’s State of the City Address has been postponed.
