The City of Rexburg is preparing a bond measure for the November ballot for the construction of a new Rexburg Police Station. This evening, our City Council members will host a town hall Q&A before tonight's Council meeting to present and discuss information about the initiative with the community.
We invite you to join us this evening to learn more about the measure at 5:30 pm this evening (7/16/2025) @ Council Chambers: 35 N 1st E. Enter through the back of the City Hall for the main entrance to Council Chambers. We hope to see you there.
If you can't make it tonight, future events regarding the bond can be found here: https://www.rexburg.org/o/cor/page/rpd-bond-news
We're so excited for the Rexburg 4th of July parade to sprinkle some star-spangled cheer on our streets this week! A heads-up: if you start decorating City property—like parks, sidewalks, streets, or alleys—with things like blankets, chairs, or coolers before 6:00 pm on July 3rd, our City crews will turn it into a game of finders keeprs, collecting your goodies to stash away until you can retrie them after the holiday.
Keeping it festive and fun is kind and courteous to all the parade goers, and as always, be safe. Keep little firecrackers (and big ones, too) out of the street at all times during the parade; that Tootsie Roll can wait! We also recommend bringing your sunscreen and water bottles to avoid getting overheated. Nobody likes a passed-out passerby.
Once the confetti settles, head over to Porter Park for exciting activities and delicious food waiting for your arrival! The Party in the Park is sure to keep the spirit going all day long! We can't wait to celebrate this holiday with you!
We have to give a special shout-out to the @Rexburg Area Chamber of Commerce for dedicating their tireless efforts to making these two events happen. Their commitment to our community is truly commendable. We’re grateful for their dedication and can’t wait to see the results of their efforts come to life in just a few days!
City Hall and our affiliated offices will be closed on Friday, July 4th, in honor of the Fourth of July. Emergency Services and our recreation facilities will remain in operation as usual.
Trash and recycling pickup, normally scheduled for Friday, will be picked up on Saturday, July 5th.
We hope you enjoy your holiday! Stay Safe, Rexburg!
On Juneteenth, we honor the past, celebrate progress, and recommit to building a future of true equality.

⚠️ Heads Up, Rexburg! We've identified a potential hazard with the new traffic light on Trejo and Yellowstone regarding the railroad crossing in the area. Crews will be working to program the light so that if the railroad light is flashing red, the traffic signal will not turn green. Programming on this light will delay the use of the light temporarily. Out of caution, our team will be bagging the light tomorrow until the programming has been installed. We expect it to take about a month.
💡❗ Please remember, while a traffic light is bagged, it is treated as though there is no light at that intersection. Safe Travels, Everyone!
