The Bay Area has been battered by a continuing onslaught of heavy rain and wind this past week. While the City of Dublin, CA, has sustained the worst of this recent storm with minimal damage, City Staff is nevertheless taking the threat of the winter storm season seriously.

In preparation for the winter storm season, which has already brought a significant amount of precipitation, the City of Dublin, CA, has established a self-service sandbag pickup location at the City’s corporation yard at 5777 Scarlet Court. Pre-filled sandbags are placed on a palette next to the corporation yard entrance gate. Residents and businesses can take these bags, free of charge, to curtail or prevent flooding around their properties. Over the past weekend, approximately 60 sandbags were taken for use. The City is requesting that residents and businesses take only what they need as only limited daily quantities of these pre-filled sandbags are available. For any questions, please contact the Public Works Department at (925) 833-6630.
