Why it matters
Good drainage ditches protect your home from flooding during heavy rains. When ditches get clogged, water can't flow away and may flood streets and yards. This contract keeps drainage systems working properly in the Hardy Aldine area.
If this passes
Drainage ditches in Hardy Aldine will be cleaned and regraded to prevent flooding. Water will flow better during storms, protecting homes and businesses from water damage.
If this does not pass
Ditches could get clogged with debris and become shallow. This increases flooding risks during heavy rains, potentially damaging homes and making streets unsafe.
