City of Scottsbluff staff are busy assessing the storm damage while clean-up efforts have begun.

We ask everyone to put their yard debris in their yard waste containers first, then use biodegradable yard waste bags if needed. Cut branches and trees to six feet in length. Set all debris at the curb.

Crews will spend the first part of the week picking up the debris. Debris, including large trees/branches, can be hauled to the Scottsbluff Tree Dump. Trees that have fallen in residents yards will need to be removed from their property by the owner or tree service. The City will not enter private property to remove any down trees or branches. The Scottsbluff Tree Dump will be open on Saturday and Sunday, 8 AM to 5 PM. The tree dump will be open during normal week hours and close at 4 PM today. We ask that everyone accomplish clean-up efforts by Wednesday.

The Westmoor Pool will most likely be closed today to repair storm damage. Watch the City’s Facebook page for further information.

Please pay attention to the weather forecast today. According to the National Weather Service (NWS) Cheyenne, similar weather is possible this afternoon.
