Safety reminders
If a road or trail is closed, it’s closed for your safety! Please follow all signage.
Stay away from stormwater facilities and flooded areas to avoid potential hazards.
Prepare for heavy rainfall
Here are a few things you can do to prepare for more rainfall:
Check sump pumps
Clean eavestroughs and downspouts
Clean and exercise your weeping tile flapper
Ensure drainage swales (gently rounded ditches along property lines) are clear so water can flow freely
Learn more about preparing for heavy rainfall.
