Only Rain in the Drain In the coming months, you will notice new metal medallions on our stormwater drains throughout the city! These medallions are to remind everyone that dumping is not allowed in the municipal stormwater system. Help ensure our watershed remains a quality source of water for you and your family. Remember: “only rain in the drain!” For more information, contact the City Engineer at 660.627.1272.
