Why it matters
Regular ditch cleaning prevents flooding in your neighborhood. When ditches get clogged with debris and dirt, rainwater can't drain properly. This causes water to back up into streets and yards during storms. Clean ditches protect your home and keep roads safe to drive on.
If this passes
Ditches in the Genoa Camp Area will be regularly cleaned and reshaped. This helps prevent flooding during heavy rains and keeps neighborhood streets and yards dry.
If this does not pass
Ditches may fill up with debris and dirt. This could cause flooding problems in the Genoa Camp Area during storms, putting homes and roads at risk.
