City of Harper Woods' Response to the Virus - UPDATED

From the City Manager

Think Positive, Be Positive

Let’s get it straight- these times are NOT uncertain; they are simply uncommon! WE will get through this as a household, a neighborhood, a community, a city, a state, a nation and globally humankind will prevail. We just need to adhere to the Governor’s Executive Order to Stay Home and Stay Safe. Here are a few simply things you should do immediately to help yourself over the next few weeks.

Make a routine and stick to it. This will help your body stay regular and can help you remain productive.
Get some sunshine. Studies show sunshine helps lift our spirits. While you’re at it maybe exercise while social distancing.
Make a List of To Dos. Consider all the household chores, ideas or simple organizational improvements you’ve been putting off.

Think Positive, Be Positive

Public Service Announcement - Plumbing Systems and Wipes

With schools shut down and businesses closed or offering limited services to prevent the spread of Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19), it is more important than ever that residents of Southeast Michigan take simple steps to help maintain functionality of private and public plumbing systems. "Flushable" wipes create blockages in household pipes and municipal sewer systems and should never be flushed down the toilet, nor should facial tissue or paper towel. To ensure that each household has enough toilet paper and stores are able to maintain a steady supply, everyone is encouraged to buy only what they need.
