Commissioner Mayra Uribe said county leaders were surprised by how much debris still hasn’t been collected. If yours hasn’t either, you’re asked to call your commissioner 311 right away.

“I think this is a major issue,” Uribe said. “And anyone listening today and anyone who receives notification from us or the county, and you have debris, call immediately.”
