• Inclement Weather Response Reminder: Help prevent local residential street flooding by
monitoring catch basins near your home and keeping them clear of leaves and other debris.
Street sweepers are dispatched daily to clean up debris along major arterials. Please

dispatched to keep major arterials drivable. Visit our website at
