All sandbags must be stacked on the road without pallets, no more than 4’ from the edge of the road next to homeowner’s property. Sandbags must be on the road—not in the ditch. Neighbors are encouraged to work together to ensure that traffic and emergency vehicles have access through the streets at all times. Only sand and sandbags may be placed on the road side in opened zones. No other materials will be accepted.
