Mobile Apps
The City of Virginia Beach provides numerous mobile apps across platforms to connect residents to services.
Adopt-a-Drain
When you adopt a storm drain through the City of Virginia Beach Adopt-a-Drain program, you are volunteering to keep your storm drain clear from debris, such as grass clippings, leaves, pine needles, sediment, and trash.
By taking care of your adopted storm drain, you’re helping to keep our local waterways clean and healthy.
