The City of Mountain Home will begin their city wide storm debris cleanup Monday morning. Residents will need to place their storm debris near the curb, out of the ditches, so city crews will have easy access for removal.
Mayor Hillrey Adams spoke with KTLO, Classic Hits and The Boot News to share details on how the city is planning to execute the cleanup.
Adams says they hope to make one sweep through town, similar to snow removal days.
