San Leandro Police Department: Storm Advisory
In the event this storm causes power outages and you come across non-functioning traffic signals, they must be treated as four-way stops.
December 12, 2021
As we experience another major storm, the City of San Leandro would like to pass on some information. During storms, the City ensures that main roadways are clear of downed trees and other debris and that storm drain inlets are functioning properly. Public Works crews respond to reports of tree damage and clogged storm drains, placing priority on blocked roadways, flooding above the curb line and other hazardous situations. Storm drains have limited capacity and flooding may occur in low lying areas and/or at high tide during an initial downpour based on the severity of the storm.
