Minimize Water Usage In Areas Where There Is No Power

The City of Hampton requests that you minimize water usage in areas where there is no power. Dominion Virginia Power is working to restore power to all Hampton customers. It is anticipated that most of the power will be restored to these residents by Sunday night. Call Dominion at 1-888-667-3000 if your electricity has been interrupted. Additional information on a wide range of electrical safety topics is available at www.dom.com/storm-center/tips-for-your-safety/

The City of Hampton requests your patience and understanding as garbage and trash collections continue in all accessible areas. Limitations on how far in advance you may place debris curbside will be suspended for the next week.

Citizens are encouraged to call 311 in Hampton (727-8311 outside of Hampton or from a mobile phone), and receive e-mail updates by signing up for eNews at www.enews.hampton.gov.
