rake out the storm drain before the rain does
· Bellevue Dispatch, issue 5 · All Bellevue news
Bellevue has more than 20,000 storm drains, and in October, leaves are what block them. If a drain near your house collects leaves, rake it clear from the sidewalk, staying out of the street. The leaves go in your organics cart, not into the drain, a ditch, a creek or the gutter. If a drain is blocked below the grate, or water is pooling across the road, call Utilities at 425-452-7840. Adopt a storm drain
That's the week. Reply with anything you want tracked in Bellevue. Next Thursday: the October 20 budget session on development fees, and the final votes on the Bellewood Townhomes and EverGlen Village rezones.
