Residents are asked NOT to blow or rake yard wastes such as grass clippings into the street. Check storm drain inlets in your neighborhood to make sure they are free of debris.

Rake leaves, grass and debris away from the inlet and dispose of properly. You should immediately report the problem to City Hall if the debris is excessive or causes any back up or flooding. Never remove the inlet grate from the storm drain opening - this creates a hazard.
