Anyone with a concern about possible flooding and would like some sandbags the Fountain Hills Rural/Metro Fire Department has sand and bags available at Fire Station #1 on Palisades Boulevard at Avenue of the Fountains. People should plan to fill the bags themselves, but firefighters may help if available.
