Likewise, those with storm sewer drains adjacent to their property can assist the City by clearing snow from in front of them so that runoff of melting snow and the forecast rain for the end of this week will be able to drain to prevent standing water and help to avoid flooding. Thank you for your assistance. Update from the city:
