Crews worked the afternoon, evening and night of Sunday, Aug. 17 to repair power lines that were knocked down earlier in the day when a large tree at a home along Fort Street fell. Customers in the vicinity were without power for a brief period of time, but Fort Street remained closed from Stokes Avenue to 13200 South until the following morning because the tree blocked the road. Fort Street is a major north-south road in the city, so despite it happening on a weekend, Draper City sent out road closure and re-opening notices to residents. (Mimi Darley Dutton/City Journals)
