Runoff season has arrived, and Frisco is asking residents to take precautions to prepare for potential flood incidents in town.<\/p>\n

With snowpack sitting slightly above average, county officials aren\u2019t expecting a heavy runoff season or elevated risks of flooding. Though, they\u2019re still urging public works departments around the county, along with residents and homeowners, to prepare for the possibility.<\/p>\n

In Frisco, the public works department is making standard preparations for the snowmelt, including monitoring water levels in the Tenmile Creek and evaluating flood threats, removing debris that might impact water flow and making sandbags available to residents.<\/p>\n

Frisco residents can pick up sandbags from the Frisco Public Works shop, 102 School Road, during regular business hours Mondays through Fridays. The first 100 sandbags per lot (not per address) are available free of charge. After that, bags will cost $0.25 a piece.<\/p>\n
