An Except from the Mayor Welcoming Message
From Preston, even on a cloudy day you are able to see the most
southern mountains at the end of the valley. The traffic lights
leading south into Wellsville, Utah resemble ant trails traveling into
the ant hill as they move south into Sardine Canyon towards the Great
Salt Lake Valley. The view is so clear on summer nights that the
serene lights from the Logan Temple can only be trumped by the
plethora of celestial stars that watch over the Great City of Preston
and the lower end of the Valley.
Not only is our community
unique, but so are our hard working citizens with an unemployment rate
mirroring the State of Idaho at 2.90% that is considerably less than
the national unemployment rate of 3.70%! This is due in part to
diversified light industry and to having a stable and sustainable
medical system (which is vital to any growing community) serviced by
Franklin County Medical Center, (recently expanded which includes a
modern new 15,000 square foot surgical center), that is ranked within
the top 100 critical access hospitals within the U.S. and a city that
is open to growth and hometown family values.
Preston is
geographically situated near the Bear River and is the only drainage
in SE Idaho and Northern Utah where whitewater activities are
available.
