Since July 1, more than 1,000 tons of vegetative debris have been collected from some of the hardest-hit areas of the community. Although significant progress has been made, the city stated that vendors will no longer be collecting storm debris from streets or public rights-of-way. Residents are advised not to place any additional storm debris at the curb. Instead, they should use the designated drop-off facility on FM 2410.
