🌧️💧 Stormwater Awareness Starts With Us 💧🌧️
Did you know that rainwater flowing over streets, parking lots, and lawns can carry trash, oil, chemicals, and pollutants directly into our rivers and lakes? That runoff is called stormwater — and small actions can make a big difference in protecting our water.
✅ Pick up litter
✅ Dispose of chemicals properly
✅ Sweep driveways instead of hosing them down
✅ Clean up pet waste
✅ Plant native vegetation to reduce runoff
Every drain leads somewhere. Help keep our waterways clean and healthy for future generations.

Microsoft Publisher did us a favor by pushing us out of our comfort zone with its phase-out in October 2026. We decided to get an early start by transitioning to a new newsletter format this month—and we are beyond pleased with how it turned out.
Unfortunately, the version included with the utility bill will still appear in black and white, so we’ll be showcasing the full-color version on our website and social media. Even though the page size remains the same, it somehow feels like we’ve lost a bit of space.
Because of that, reminders will now be available on the City website through the Community Bulletin Board page. The Choctaw Community Bulletin Board serves as a centralized hub for community information, including reminders previously found in the newsletter, links to community organization websites, and other helpful resources.
