Severe Weather Headed Our Way!

Stay safe, have a plan, sign up for alerts, and keep your electronics charged! If it is likely your home will flood, don't wait to be ordered to leave; evacuate yourself! Make alternative plans for a place to stay. If you have pets, take them with you or make arrangements to board them at a facility well away from the flooding danger.

Your LV Fire, Police, and Public Works Department are gearing up for this weekend's sever weather. Follow our Facebook page, City website, and MyLeonValley mobile app for updates and information!
