KEEP OUR STREETS & CANALS CLEAN

IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR LAWN SERVICE PROFESSIONALS

DO:

. Collect and properly dispose of yard debris.

. Use designated waste facilities.

. Keep streets, drains, and canals clear.

DO NOT:

BENEFITS:

PREVENT FLOODING:

Storm drains move rainwater away from streets and properties. When clogged, they can't do their job, leading to flooding.

DO NOT:

Storm drains flow directly into canals, rivers, and oceans, without treatment. Anything entering a drain can pollute our water supply and harm wildlife.

KEEP OUT OF DRAINS:

Clear drains ensure our stormwater systems function safely and effectively
