After last night's sustained high winds, city crews worked throughout the night to clear downed trees and other hazards. While many roads were blocked last night, the only current road closure is a partial closure of Baldwin Dam road due to a tree down. 

Please watch for items in the road and overhead hanging tree branches that could fall. City crews are doing their best to keep Folsom safe, and the streets open. We are prioritizing large trees and items that are blocking the roadway right now. Small branches, debris, etc., may be reported but likely will not be reached for some time. If you can safely move the debris to the side of a residential roadway, it will help us all.

More rain, wind, and potential flooding are expected this evening. Please help us prepare. When leaves accumulate on the street, it is challenging for street sweepers to pick up the leaves, which can clog storm drain inlets resulting in localized flooding.

Here's how residents can help:
  •  Avoid sweeping or blowing leaves into ditches or streets.
  •  Clear leaves from gutters and storm drains and place them in your green waste container, if possible.
  •  Keep sidewalks clear of leaves and other debris.
  •  Trim trees and remove broken branches.

If there is a storm drain inlet that is difficult to clear, or you would like to report a storm drain issue, call the Public Works Street Department at 916-461-6722
