City of Hephzibah Update:
I hope this communication finds all of our Citizens safe and well. At this time, gasoline access should be returning to normal. Grocery stores are open and restocking shelves. I know that we have a lot of work left to do to get back to normal.
As you are cleaning the storm debris from your yards and property, there is a process that we need you to follow so that the clean up will be safe, orderly, and efficient.
--We are asking that you place all storm debris on the right of way so that it can be accessed by the grapple trucks from the roadway.
--DO NOT place any debris in the roadway.
--DO NOT place any building materials, household waste, or garbage with the tree debris.
--Due to the fact that we still have numerous power lines that have to be put up or replaced, please do not place debris under power lines, where possible.
--Place all debris on the side of the road that doesn't have power lines, if possible.
We appreciate your patience with all of the workers that have come to help us in our time of need. Now is a great time to have empathy for your neighbors and friends as we work to get life back to normal as soon as possible.
Thank you in advance for helping us make this debris pickup as safe and efficient as possible.
Sincerely,
Robert J. Buchwitz, Chairman
