· Texas Border Business
Edinburg Mayor Omar Ochoa is urging residents to keep trash and debris out of streets and storm drains after heavy rainfall caused flooding at Richard R. Flores Cat Stadium and the city’s parks and recreation building. City crews discovered clogged manholes filled with waste, which obstructed water flow. Ochoa reported that once the debris was cleared using a Vector truck, drainage systems functioned correctly, allowing water to flow into larger channels. He emphasized the importance of proper waste disposal to prevent neighborhood flooding and encouraged residents to monitor their areas for improper disposal practices.
