“City crews are installing flood-protection gap boards on Balboa Island and will deploy throughout the king tide event to operate pumps, place sandbags, install flood-protection measures and post traffic-control signs where needed,” the dispatch stated.
Newport Beach residents can pick up pre-filled sandbags at the City Corporation Yard at 592 Superior Ave. Sandbags are also available for filling at all Newport Beach fire stations.
The tides are expected to subside Tuesday.
Anyone seeking more information was encouraged to call 949-644-3055.
