Residents Asked to Assist with Clearing Catch Basins

Thursday, October 28, 2021 – Fall leaves are beautiful while on the trees, but when those leaves start to fall and cover our catch basins, it can cause trouble.  During heavy rain, leaves can block our catch basins causing water pooling on roads.

We are asking for resident support to prevent water pooling.  Residents who are able to are asked to please clear their local catch basins of leaves and debris to allow water to drain from the roads. Residents can also assist by checking culverts under driveways to ensure they are not blocked.

Residents who spot significant water accumulation that won’t drain can call the district at 250.642.1634.
