Sand and Sandbags are Available
In order to help prevent damage from flooding, sand is available for City
residents at the City Municipal Services Center at 55 Stony Point Road. The
yard is open 24-hours a day, 7-days a week. Materials are available
throughout the entire rain season, not only during storm events.
City residents can drive into the Municipal Services Center yard
and use the sandbag filling station shown in the image below. Shovels will be
on hand for residents to fill bags with sand. Residents should plan to
transport the sandbags in a vehicle they don't mind getting dirty and should
note that the sand has been stored outdoors and could be wet, so the sandbags
may be heavy and muddy to transport.
These materials are provided to Santa Rosa residents only. Proof of
residency will be required and checked on-site. Below
is a list of other agencies in the area that may be providing sand and
bags to residents.
Please contact the Transportation and
Public Works Department at 543-3800 for more information.
Other cities and agencies may be offering sand and sandbag
materials to their residents. We recommend
calling them first, to confirm they are offering these materials.
