Skunk Activity

If you or your animal come into contact with a skunk it is very important for you to call the police department. Rabies is a deadly disease caused by a virus. In infected mammals, it is spread through the saliva and is contractible by any warm-blooded animal. Signs of a possible rabid animal are:
• Change in behavior - Nocturnal animals, like skunks, raccoons, coyotes, foxes and bats should not be out and about during the daylight hours.
• Unexplainable paralysis or inability to move
• Not eating or eating strange foods
• Pawing at the mouth
• Appearance of choking
• Difficu lty in swallowing
• Chewing at the site of a wound or bite site
If you witness any wild animal in the city, displaying the symptoms listed above, please call the College Station Police department at 979-764-3600. It is always important to keep your pet's vaccination current against rabies. It is also important to not let your pets to roam free where they might be at risk of coming in contact with a rabid animal.

Information on American Water Resources
The City of College Station wants residents to know that it doesn’t endorse specific offers by insurance companies to cover water and sewer line repairs on private property. Residents may be receiving such offers in the mail in the coming weeks.
“A lot of cities across the country endorse warranties offered by specific companies, but we expect the free market to make the best choices available to our citizens,” Water Services Director David Coleman said. “We are certainly not against the coverage itself, but we want to make it clear that the City of College Station is not partnering with any of these insurance companies. These offers should be considered carefully and on their own merits.”
In most cases, homeowners are responsible for repairs to water or sewer lines on their properties since the city’s responsibility ends at the meter or property line. For a monthly fee, warranty companies can provide coverage for water and sewer line repairs.
Also, please forward this information to others in your neighborhood or HOA . We want residents to know about this issue so that they can make an informed decision. If you have questions regarding this issue, feel free to email or call me.
Thank You,
