Help Clear Snow from Storm Sewers to Prevent Flooding

As temperatures rise, it is important for melting snow to be able to reach storm sewers. If you have a storm sewer near your property, you can help prevent street flooding by clearing snow and ice from storm sewers. Public Works crews have been working to keep melting snow out of the streets and clear storm sewers, and the community’s assistance is appreciated.
