🚨 POST–WINTER STORM SAFETY ALERT 🚨

As temperatures rise and the ice begins to melt, new hazards can pop up quickly. Please take a few extra precautions to keep yourself and your family safe:

⚠️ Watch for black ice
Melting ice can refreeze overnight, especially on bridges, overpasses, and shaded areas.

🚗 Drive with caution
Slow down, increase following distance, and avoid sudden braking or sharp turns.

🚶 Be careful on foot
Sidewalks, steps, and driveways may still be slick. Wear shoes with good traction and use handrails when available.

🏠 Check your home
Look for falling icicles, roof runoff, and standing water that could refreeze. Keep walkways clear and well-lit.

🔥 Use space heaters safely
Keep them at least 3 feet from anything flammable and never leave them unattended.

❄️ Even as the ice melts, conditions can change fast. Stay alert, stay safe, and look out for one another.

🚫🔥 TODAY IS A NO BURN DAY IN DEL CITY 🔥🚫

Today has been designated as a No Burn Day in Del City, OK. That means outdoor burning is not allowed, including brush piles, trash, or yard debris.

Why does this matter?

🌬️ Weather conditions such as wind, low humidity, or poor air quality can cause fires to spread quickly and uncontrollably

🚒 Increased fire risk threatens homes, property, and lives

🫁 Smoke impacts air quality, especially for children, seniors, and those with respiratory conditions

👨‍🚒 Preventable fires take emergency resources away from true emergencies

Even a small fire can escape rapidly under the wrong conditions.

✅ Please wait for an approved burn day
✅ Use alternative disposal methods for yard waste
✅ Help us keep our community safe

Employee of the Year Award Goes To… Israel Camargo! 🏆

Israel exemplifies what it means to serve Del City with relentless spirit, adaptability, and unmatched dedication. Day or night, weekday or weekend, Israel shows up with heart and a smile.

He’s not just a hard worker; he’s a team player who takes pride in strengthening our community through every task, every hour, and every challenge.

Although he was unable to attend the Del City Chamber of Commerce’s Hall of Fame Banquet (because, true to form, he was hard at work keeping things running smoothly), we’re proud to recognize his incredible commitment to our city.

Pictured left to right:
Fire Chief Z, Interim Public Works Director Brittany Parrott, City Manager JD Hock, Mechanic III Israel Camargo, and Assistant City Manager Kellie Wilbanks.

Congratulations, Israel! Your dedication inspires us all.

💪 Deep Roots. Relentless Spirit.
