Snow Alert - Feb 11

Dear Friends:

We have two important updates related to the weather - upcoming snow and water main breaks in the district.

Water Main Breaks:

We have had two water main breaks in the District in the past two days. Crews are working on water main breaks all over the city as a result of the fluctuating temperatures and our aging infrastructure.

36th and Chestnut water main break from yesterday was fixed today.

The Alameda and North Hill Road water main break was just brought to my attention. If you do not have water, or little bit of water, please let me know so we can get water out to you asap. We are working on getting crews out there to fix the issue as soon as possible. Please contact me on this email or 443-801-8137

Snow update

It is going to snow later tonight and tomorrow. We should be expecting several inches. The Department of Transportation has announced that the City's snow team was deployed at 4pm today to start working on making the roads safe. Here is the City's plan this time around.

This has definitely been one snowy winter!

Please call 311 first and get that confirmation number for any issues you are having including salting of streets or plowing. Then call our office on 410-396-4814 or email me on odette.ramos@baltimorecity.gov with that confirmation number so we can help escalate the situation.

Here are a few reminders:

—Pre-treat your walkways and sidewalks now.

—Unless you are an essential worker, please do not drive in the snow so that our snow crews are able to work on the streets effectively.

—If you have to commute tomorrow morning, give yourself time to clean the snow and to travel.

When the snow dissipates please shovel your walkway. Homeowners and renters are responsible for shoveling walkways. If your neighbor is an older adult or otherwise needs assistance, please shovel their sidewalks and walkways.

 Let's see what happens this time!
