Clogged Storm Drain-If you live in an area that may be subject to periodic flooding during heavy rains and the DPW crews have not yet cleared a storm drain near your residence, DPW asks for your assistance by unclogging the drain(s). If you are unable to clear/clean a drain that is clogged near your house, please report it by contact the department at 568-4440 or the police department at 568-6255. It is difficult for the DPW crews to cover every road during the fall when drains are most prone to clogging. Please help us, help you!
