Monitor Storm Drains
We need your help! Storm drains have limited capacity and flooding may occur in low lying areas.  Since Public Works crews may be delayed in responding to reports of flooding, based on the severity of the storm, residents can help by:

• Checking drainage systems and removing debris as necessary.
• Collecting and properly disposing of heavy leaf falls before the storm occurs.
• Removing leaves and debris from storm drain inlets with a rake or shovel.
• Using sandbags and plastic sheeting to protect flood-prone entrances to homes.
• Driving slowly and carefully, particularly where water has accumulated on roadways.  Never drive into a large body of standing water.
• Staying tuned to local radio and television news sources for the latest weather information and the City’s website and social media accounts for Fremont specific updates.
