Keep storm drains, sidewalks clear of debris
|
|
Leaves can make sidewalks and roads a slippery mess. Debris can clog storm drains and cause flooding if not properly maintained.
Property owners are asked to clean storm drains near their properties, both before and after rain events.
- Use a rake to clear leaves/debris collected in the drain
- Only remove items from the top of the grate, do not remove the grate
- Do not put your hands/feet into the drain
- Do not rake leaves into the street
In unincorporated Washington County, property owners are responsible for maintaining sidewalks adjacent to their property. Wet leaves on sidewalks can cause falls leading to injuries. If a sidewalk is damaged, property owners may need to apply for a County right-of-way permit before repairs.
