The EMO Committee would like to remind community members to prepare for the possibility of rising water levels and consider the following:
Prepare your property by clearing or tying down light items that may float away.
Please clean outside drains near your home.
Plan Ahead – Seal basement windows and doors.
Do not store important items in areas of your home prone to flooding/water damage. If it is necessary to store these items in your basement, ensure they are kept elevated off the floor.
