Starfsmenn þjónustumiðstöðva fara um bæjarkjarna Fjarðabyggðar mánudaginn 11. janúar og safna jólatrjám til förgunar. Íbúar eru vinsamlegast beðnir um að losa sig við jólatrén út við lóðarmörk um næstu helgi.

Fulltrúar Viðlagatryggingar verða á ferðinni hér fyrir austan í vikunni, nánar tiltekið á miðvikudag og fimmtudag. Viðtalstímar verða sem hér segir í hverjum bæjarhluta.

Umtalsverðar breytingar verða gerðar á framkvæmdasviði Fjarðabyggðar samfara nýju skipuriti sem tekið hefur gildi fyrir stjórnsýslu sveitarfélagsins. Sviðið nefnist nú framkvæmda-, umhverfis- og veitusvið og verður því skipt upp í fjórar starfseiningar.

Íþróttamaður Fjarðabyggðar var valinn við hátíðlega athöfn í Kirkju- og menningarmiðstöðinni á Eskifirði þriðjudaginn 29. desember. Fyrir valinu varð María Rún Karlsdóttir Íþróttafélaginu Þrótti Neskaupstað.

Þeir sem urðu fyrir tjóni í óveðrinu sem gekk yfir í gær og telja að tjónið falli undir vátryggingavernd Viðlagatryggingar Íslands skulu tilkynna það á heimasíðu Viðlagatryggingar. Skila þarf inn aðskyldum tilkynningum fyrir fasteign og innbú.

Veðurstofa Íslands hefur aflýst óvissustigi vegna krapaflóða- og skriðufallahættu á austfjörðum.

Lokað verður í allan dag í íþróttamiðstöðinni á Norðfirði vegna bilunar í búnaði eftir óveðrið.Lokað er í sundlaug Eskifjarðar vegna veðurs en athugað verður með að opna kl. 13:00.Lokað verður í íþróttamiðstöðinni á Stöðvarfirði í dag vegna veðurs.Opið er í íþróttamiðstöðvunum á Reyðarfirði og Fáskrúðsfirði.

Allir leikskólarnir í Fjarðabyggð verða lokaðir í dag miðvikudaginn 30. desember, vegna veðurs og slæmrar veðurspár.

Almannavarnanefnd vekur athygli á mjög slæmri veðurspá fyrir Austfirði í kvöld og nótt. Full ástæða er til að gera allar nauðsynlegar og viðeigandi ráðstafanir. Um miðnætti verður hvöss austanátt með mikilli úrkomu og undir morgun er von á mjög hvassri sunnanátt sem gæti nálgast fárviðri.

Spáð er ofsa­veðri eða fár­viðri aust­an­til á land­inu í nótt og í fyrra­málið, fyrst suðaust­an­lands. Í nótt gæti vind­ur náð fár­viðri eða allt að 33 m/​s á Aust­fjörðum, seg­ir í viðvör­un frá veður­fræðing­um Veður­stofu Íslands.

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

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.

Tökur á annarri þáttaröð Fortitude hefjast hér fyrir austan í byrjun febrúar.

Minningarreitur helgaður minningu þeirra sem farist hafa í snjóflóðum í Neskaupstað var vígður í dag. Reiturinn er staðsettur innan við þéttbýlið á Norðfirði, á þeim slóðum er Mánahús stóð áður.

Framkvæmdir eru að hefjast við lagningu 132 kílóvolta (kV) jarðstrengja frá Stuðlalínu 2 sunnan Eskifjarðar að tengivirki Landsnets á Eskifirði og áfram þaðan að loftlínum ofan við bæinn. Áætlaður kostnaður er 125 milljónir króna og er stefnt að því að framkvæmdum ljúki á fyrsta ársfjórðungi næsta árs.

Minningarreitur vegna snjóflóðanna í Neskaupstað verður vígður föstudaginn 18. desember kl. 18:00. Að athöfn lokinni verður heitt kakó á boðstólum í Mána.

Jólasjóðurinn aðstoðar einstaklinga og fjölskyldur sem búa við bága félagslega og eða fjárhagslega stöðu fyrir jólin. Hefð er komin á samstarf að Jólasjóðnum mili fjölskyldusviðs Fjarðabyggðar, Rauða kross deilda í Fjarðabyggð og á Breiðdalsvík, Þjóðkirkjunnar, Kaþólsku kirkjunnar og Mæðrastyrksnefndar á Norðfirði.

Engin útköll urðu vegna foktjóns í umdæmi lögreglustjórans á Austurlandi. Bleyta og mikil hálka er víða á vegum eftir úrkomu næturinnar og eru vegfarendur beðnir um að fara með gát.

Engar tilkynningar um röskun á skólahaldi hafa borist og verður starfsemi leikskóla, grunnskóla og tónlistarskóla með eðlilegum hætti í dag. Skólastjórnendur vara við bleytu á vegum og mikilli hálku.

Skólar, íþróttamiðstöðvar og bókasöfn loka í dag kl. 17:00 vegna veðurs. Foreldrar eru hvattir til að fylgja börnum heim úr skóla eða sjá til þess að þau fái fylgd heim. Gert er ráð fyrir að óveðrinu sloti í fyrramálið, en ekki er ljóst hvenær og eru foreldrar beðnir um að fylgjst vel með tilkynningum. Veittar verða upplýsingar um skólahald í Fjarðabyggð á vef sveitarfélagsins fjardabyggd.is og fésbók upp úr klukkan sjö í fyrramálið eða eins fljótt og unnt verður.

Vegna veðurs og sjávarstöðu eru eigendur hvattir til að huga að bátum sínum og tryggja að landfestar séu í lagi. Einnig er brýnt að þeir sem eru með báta sína að landi hugi að ástandi þeirra. Gert er ráð fyrir stífri austanátt áður en vindur snýst til suðurs og síðan vesturs og því rétt að eigendur báta og skipa séu á varðbergi vegna báta sinna.

Verulegur viðbúnaður er vegna fárviðrisins sem gengur yfir landið í dag. Fjallvegum verður lokað á Austurlandi frá kl. 16:00 og fram til morguns. Fólk er hvatt til að huga vel að öllu lauslegu í kringum hús eins og ruslafötum og að hreinsa frá niðurföllum, þar sem töluverð slydda eða úrkoma er í spákortunum. Eigendur smábáta eru einnig beðnir um að huga að bátum sínum.
