Sandbag Levee Removal (from City of Fargo)

Below is a news release from the City of Fargo encouraging homeowners to begin sandbag removal as of March 26th (I guess this is better than asking us to build to 42′ with 3 rows of bags on top :-).  I believe the general plan is to wait for the water on the bike path to drop low enough where skidsteers could drive upon and help remove the sandbags (easier and less damaging to go downhill toward the sidewalk than to go uphill through everyone’s yards).  More information will be posted as to specific day(s)/time(s) to remove sandbags.
