Fort Bend County curfew terminated:

Fort Bend County Judge ordered a curfew put into place on August 31 to assist law enforcement in the protection of private property within evacuation zones in Fort Bend County. The curfew was in effect from August 31 until today, when the Judge terminated the curfew.

"Along with the cancelling of many of the evacuation orders, conditions have improved to the point that we can now lift the curfew to better allow people access to their property." says County Judge Bob Hebert.

While it is now safe enough to lift the curfew, individual neighborhoods and homes may still pose hazards that residents should be aware of. Displaced animals, contaminated flood waters, and unstable structures can pose an ongoing hazard to residents trying to return home.

Due to the heavy flooding caused by Tropical Storm Harvey, City of Santa Fe Mayor Jeff Tambrella has signed an order for a mandatory curfew for the City of Santa Fe effective immediately.

Seabrook - 10 p.m to 6 a.m.

Mayor Kolupski has extended the curfew order and Seabrook will be under a mandatory curfew again tonight starting at 10:00 p.m. until 6:00 a.m. on Tuesday, August 29. The curfew is in place for the safety of our community as we recover from the recent flood event.

Seabrook City Hall will open tomorrow from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., however, there will be NO TRASH PICKUP on Tuesday. We hope to resume trash pickup as soon as we feasibly can and we will notify our residents when service resumes. Do not place trash or other items on the curb at this time.

As our city recovers from the flooding we urge residents to slow down when driving through neighborhoods with flooded streets. The wake washes into people’s yards and in some cases into their homes causing possible flood damage. In addition, DO NOT move barricades that are placed in high water areas. These barricades are put in place for your safety. We encourage you to find an alternate route if barricades are blocking certain streets.

If your home suffered damage during the flood please report it to us by completing the Storm Damage Report online at www.seabrooktx.gov/damagereport.

We will continue to update the community on our social media networks and posting to our website at www.seabrooktx.gov/harvey.
 

Webster - 10 p.m. to 6 a.m.

Beginning Sunday, August 27, 2017 in the City of Webster, a curfew will be in effect from 10 PM to 6 AM. On Saturday night and early Sunday morning emergency personnel were involved in an extremely high volume of night time, vehicular water rescues. With more rain in the forecast, City leaders are hoping to avoid the same type scenario and minimize high water related risks for our citizens.
