OCTOBER 2024 UPDATE: After a year and a half investigation and research on our water service lines, the City can now verify that there is NO lead in our water service line materials. Using the OHA guidelines, Sandy has completed a statistical analysis of the unknowns in the inventory. This involved inspecting over 20% of unknowns at random to determine that no lead services can be found in Sandy. City crews inspected more than double this number and found no lead service lines.
Please help us keep our neighbors warm and cozy during this chilly season by bringing new or handmade hats, scarves, mittens, gloves, and extra warm socks to the Library. A tree will be in the lobby for you to decorate with your donations. Donated items at the Sandy library will go to the Sandy Community Action Center.
Donations will be collected Friday, November 29, 2024 - Saturday, January 4th, 2025.
Youth in grades 6th - 12th have one hour to build a gingerbread house using supplies provided by the library. If you can dream it, you can build it!
