Vegna bilunar í aðveitukerfi vatnsveitu er vatnslaust í Neskaupstað.

Vel hefur verið fylgst með gangi mála í dag í tengslum við þá miklu úrkomu sem verið hefur síðasta sólarhringinn í Fjarðabyggð. Krapaflóð féll í Grjótá á Eskifirði og af öryggisásstæðum var ákveðið að rýma sex hús sem næst eru ánni.

Aðalsteinsbikarinn - Fjórðungsglíma Austurlands - fór fram í Íþróttahúsinu á Reyðarfirði sunnudaginn 27. desember. Tuttugu og tveir keppendur kepptu í tveimur flokkum karla og þremur flokkum kvenna.

Íbúar eru beðnir um að huga vel að niðurföllum vegna yfirstandandi vatnsveðurs og gæta vel að fasteignum sínum til að forðast tjón, sérstaklega í þeim eignum þar sem eru niðurgrafnir kjallarar.

Gleðileg jól

Í desember er breytt út af hefðbundnu skólastarfi á leikskólanum Kærabæ á Fáskrúðsfirði.

Fjarðabyggð og Vátryggingarfélag Íslands hafa samið um tryggingar sveitarfélagsins og stofnana til næstu þriggja ára og handssöluðu Páll Björgvin Guðmundsson bæjarstjóri og Methúsalem Einarsson samninginn í gær.

Á fundi bæjarstjórnar Fjarðabyggðar 19. nóvember sl. var samþykkt gjaldskrá fyrir árið 2016 í íþróttamannvirkjum sveitarfélagsins og var meðal annars ákveðið að börn yngri en 18 ára í Fjarðabyggð, fái afhent kort sem veiti þeim gjaldfrjálsan aðgang í sundlaugar sveitarfélagsins.

Okkar fólk tryggði sér sæti í átta liða úrslitum Útsvars þegar liðið sigraði Strandabyggð mjög sannfærandi á föstudagskvöldið. Fjarðabyggð var einungis annað liðið í vetur til að fara yfir 100 stig en viðureignin endaði 103 – 67.
