It is that time of the year that many of the leaves are dropping from our trees into the streets. Please help keep the leaves picked up by either blowing or raking into your lawn to be mulch-mowed into your lawn or bag for disposal.

By design, storm sewers are self-cleaning; however, the drains are designed only for storm water and empty directly into major ditches and bayous. In order to limit environmental concerns, maintenance needs, or slow drainage/flooding issues, residents and/or lawn service personnel should never dispose of leaves, grass clippings, motor oil, or any other items/debris in the storm sewer.

Please keep our drains clear
