The City reminds residents to drive with caution and slow down during trick-or-treating hours. Let’s all do our part to keep our kids safe and be on the lookout for any risks.

For a safe trick-or-treating experience, follow these tips:

• Decorate costumes and bags with reflective tape or stickers and, if possible, choose light colors.

• Choose face paint and makeup instead of masks if possible to reduce the risk obstructing a child's vision.

• Have kids carry flashlights to help them see and be seen by drivers.

• Make sure costumes are the correct size to prevent trips and falls.

• If you are escorting children, please keep an eye on the road for vehicles.

• Don't walk on the street. Stay on sidewalks and cross streets when safe at intersections and crosswalks.
