City Council

The next City of Dixon City Council Meeting scheduled for June 21 will start at 7 pm inside the Council Chambers at City Hall, 600 East A Street. The last Council Meeting was difficult to hear via Zoom due to some speakers not speaking into the mic so if you want to clearly hear what is being said, it might be better to attend in person.

Formula Shortage

As heard in the news media, nationwide there is a shortage of infant formula, and Solano County Health & Social Services, Solano Public Health’s Nutrition Services Bureau has been surveying local WIC provider stores. The recent data indicate that the shortage has hit our area.

Also, the California Department of Public Health recently reported to Local Health Jurisdictions (LHJ’s) that the shortage is being experienced statewide and is expected to last about six weeks. California Department of Public Health is asking LHJ’s to submit orders for formula to the state.

In Solano County, these shipments from the state will be delivered to WIC Only Stores which are located in Fairfield and Vacaville. The WIC (Women, Infants, and Children) Only Store in Vallejo is closed due to a fire and does not have a reopening date, so the shipment will be delivered to the Solano County Tuolumne offices and will be distributed by the Vallejo WIC Office to WIC clients. The delivery should be received in about a week.

Since the Solano Public Health anticipated this shortage, they placed an order for infant formula to use in case of emergency. This delivery will be delivered to each WIC Office in Dixon, Fairfield, Vacaville, and Vallejo.

This supply will be available in case of an emergency. For example, if a non-WIC client is eligible for WIC, but not enrolled, we will help them to enroll in WIC and provide a formula. Or, if the WIC applicant is determined not to be eligible for WIC, but there is a need for an emergency formula, WIC can provide a limited amount.

Additionally, if there is a natural disaster, this supply will be helpful to those who have been evacuated. This delivery is expected in a week or two. Dixon WIC phone number is (707) 678-0717.
