Gutter and Waterway Cleanup in St. Mary’s South Ahead of Hurricane Season
As the hurricane season approaches, Senator Dwayne George has spearheaded a community-wide initiative to clean and clear waterways and gutters in St. Mary’s South and neighboring areas.
The program, conducted in collaboration with local teams, is aimed at reducing the risk of flooding that can affect homes, businesses, and public infrastructure during heavy rainfall. By removing blockages and ensuring proper drainage, the effort seeks to protect residents and strengthen the community’s resilience against storms.
Senator George emphasized that this ongoing effort is part of a broader plan to ensure that the people of St. Mary’s South and surrounding communities are better prepared for the challenges that the hurricane season may bring.
