High School Redistricting Draft Maps and Feedback
Cropper GIS encourages everyone to take a few minutes to preview the Draft Maps and complete this survey, which allows you to provide feedback on the proposed boundary changes. Whether your feedback is positive or suggests areas for improvement, all input is valuable and will help guide the final decisions.

It's Fall Flushing Season!
The Washington Township Fire Department has begun the process of flushing hydrants around the City. Flushing will happen daily, but there is no exact timing of when it will occur in each neighborhood. Residents may notice rusty or discolored water — just run your faucets until it clears. Also, be careful with laundry during flushing days. The purpose is to remove sediment from our main water lines, which helps maintain water quality and extend the life of hydrants and water lines. It also identifies potential system issues. For questions or concerns, please contact Washington Township Administration at 614-652-3920. Washington Township
It's Time To Rake Them Right
Dublin’s Fall Leaf Collection kicks off Oct. 6. Check your zone and collection dates so you know when crews will be in your neighborhood.

Track street-by-street updates anytime using the LeafGo app. Just search your address for real-time information on leaf pick-up. Rake up more info at bit.ly/DublinLeafCollection
