Heavy rainfall this time of year often leads to downed trees and debris. Remember to keep an eye out for tree limbs and other fallen vegetation on roadways, paths, and parks and open spaces. If you see downed power lines, stay clear and report them: call PSE if they're stable, call 911 if they are arcing or pose a threat.
Leaves and debris can also clog storm drains, leading to pooled water and other issues. If you notice a clogged storm drain in your neighborhood, consider clearing it if it's safe to do so. While City teams work to keep all systems functioning, the amount of debris can be very high this time of year.
As always, if you see something needing the City's attention, you can report it using MI-Connect: our online reporting tool. Your reports help us keep things running smoothly for all.
