Crisis Cleanup Hotline – Call Now:  Save and share the number; it’s 844-965-1386. This hotline is essential for reporting storm-related damage in our area, and we need your help in spreading the word!

Please call, and make sure your neighbors know.

Update: Our efforts to clear Montgomery County's roads have been successful, with around 98% already made passable. Our road crews and volunteers have worked tirelessly to make sure all roads are passable, and everyone is able to get out.

We’re in this together, Montgomery County, and we’ll continue pushing forward, one step at a time.-Be Safe and God Bless.
