Safety First! Residents need to be aware of their surroundings and make safety a priority. Medical services are limited. Field Hospital located behind City Hall

DEBRIS: Separate all Debris on the street. If household garbage is mixed in with debris it will not be collected and removal will be the responsibility of the home owner. DO NOT leave debris near your candy cane sewer vent.
