Alameda residents can receive up to five free sandbags after showing proof of residency, such as an Alameda Municipal Power bill or current driver’s license with an Alameda address.

The sandbag station, on Lexington Street just off West Tower Avenue at Alameda Point, is open from noon to 1 p.m.

However, during storms, the station is closed while staffers respond to service requests from the public, Alameda police and others.
