The Fruit Heights Youth City Council updated the City Council on upcoming community events, including Fable Forest on the Friday and Saturday before Halloween and a stormwater education flyer and cleanup planned this month.

The update matters because it describes youth engagement in city programs, including support for stormwater education that the city’s public works department requested as part of broader compliance and outreach efforts.

A YCC representative told the council the dates for Fable Forest are “the Friday and Saturday before Halloween. October 24 and October 25,” and described volunteers, new story stations and support from city public works to move props. The presenter said several YCC members and community volunteers will participate as characters and that staff will help with staging and logistics.

The YCC representative said Public Works staff member Ted Perry asked the youth council to help distribute educational flyers about stormwater and storm drains; the presenter said the project is part of a multi‑year plan and the youth will pair flyer distribution with a litter cleanup along the city’s sound wall. “We’ll be doing a little bit of litter cleanup along with the flyer pass out sometime this month,” the representative said.

The council thanked the YCC and city staff for coordinating the event and the outreach effort. No formal action was taken; the report was informational.
