City of Angola, Indiana
For some of us, this reminder is a little too late today.....
**Do not blow or brush your grass clippings onto the street!! This can clog the storm drains and cause localized flooding. It is healthier for your grass to leave the clippings in your yard.
Below are some sample pictures of WHAT NOT TO DO and a link to a short video published by the City of Dallas to remind us why this is not a good practice.

We bought our house last year and the yard was the ugliest in the neighborhood, I’ve done just as you say by mulching the grass back down and not out. Now one of the best in the neighborhood.
Plus they make the roads really slippery for motorcycles!
People are to entitled and self righteous to care about anyone else let alone the street until it’s flooded because the water can’t drain. Then they want the cry and complain to the city like it’s something the city did wrong.
I don't mow the clippings toward the street because I don't want to risk shooting rocks or twigs at passing cars, because that's something only a******* do. Pretty sure Mr. Rogers said that, too.
