🌧️ Flood Preparedness Reminder

Recent heavy rain events are a reminder that flooding can happen quickly. Residents and businesses are encouraged to take proactive steps now to help reduce the risk of basement flooding, overland flooding, and property damage.

Simple actions such as checking sump pumps, ensuring backwater valves are functioning, clearing eavestroughs and downspouts, and moving valuables to higher levels can make a significant difference. Flood preparedness is most effective before water levels begin to rise.
