Prepare for the Rainy Season
Save your home from unnecessary damage during rain storms by following these steps.
-
Clear gutters and downspouts of leaves and debris.
-
Dispose of leaves and debris in enclosed compost bins, curbside yard waste containers, or at local composting facilities.
-
Do not blow or sweep leaves into the road where they will clog storm drains.
-
Ensure driveway ditch culverts are clear and that water can flow freely.
-
Keep neighborhood storm drains free of leaves and debris. Never remove the lid or attempt to clean a storm drain located in a busy street.
- If you need help with a drainage problem, contact a professional.
Contact your local Public Works if there are problems with storm drains, ditches, or pipes. For residents of unincorporated Kitsap County, contact Kitsap 1: 360.337.5777
