What's open, What's closed & Updates on our construction projects!!
Thank you to Sunrise Residents and Employees!

To my Sunrise family, residents, employees, Fire, Police all of you are stepping up in such a big way to take care of each other in these difficult uncertain times. 

Thank you to our Sunrise Police and FireFighters that are continuing to come to work and putting themselves at risk to keep our
residents & businesses safe. 

To Sunrise employees who are working around the clock through this pandemic to make sure the City of Sunrise is taken care of and have what they need. 

I want to thank YOU the residents also for looking out for each other and making sure that no one goes without. You have shown me and each other that together we can really make a difference. From helping elderly neighbors with groceries, to making social distancing changes, to supporting your local businesses, Sunrise residents are the greatest neighbors to each other and there is no city I would rather live and work in. YOU MAKE ME PROUD!

Please follow the guidelines set out and let's continue to help each other through this to the end. If there is anything you need from the city you know where to find me.  

Check out how these neighbors spend quality time during Covid-19 stay at home restrictions.

This is why the City of Sunrise is amazing and will come out of this pandemic stronger!!!
