The object in the river between the new parking lot and the old parking lot that is bobbing up and down and does not look like a traditional buoy is in fact the buoy it just has been damaged and has been reported. We have received numerous calls about it over the last week or so, and that is what was located.

Over time sediment can fill up a storm sewer drain and keep water from flowing through the system. If your drain is filled with dirt, call the Public Works Department (636-390-1030) to schedule a time for them to come out and vacuum out the debris. Keeping water flowing helps keep water off the street and out of your basement. #vacoutthecrud #cleanthedrains #SWPPP #washmo #waterwisewednesday
