The Department of Public Works would like remind residents of the importance of clearing the storm catch basins located at intersections and along the streets. Catch basins are the small inlets along the curb that collect melting snow or rainwater to remove it from the street. Currently, a vast majority of the City’s catch basins are covered with snow and ice, which can result in street flooding. City crews are out clearing catch basins; however they are only able to clear a fraction of the catch basins located throughout the City. Residents can help reduce street flooding by assisting in clearing the catch basins. Residents unsure of where the nearest catch basin is located can contact the City Engineering Division at 920-322-3470 for a location.
