City of Roseburg crews continue cleanup and assessment after the significant storm that hit the community on Sunday.

A city release said on Sunday the Roseburg Fire Department rescued people and animals, while the Public Works Department and Roseburg Police shut down flooded and damaged roads, monitored rising waterways and provided other assistance to protect the community and emergency responders during the storm.

City Manager Nikki Messenger said, “Thank you to all City staff who worked hard and went above and beyond to help our community during the storm”. Messenger said, “I’d also like to thank all of our community partners who assisted with critical support”.

There appeared to be at least two landslides – one behind Sportman’s Warehouse on Northwest Stewart Parkway and one off Northwest Troost Street next to the Oregon Department of Justice Child Support Center.

On Sunday, at least 22 streets were closed throughout Roseburg. As of Wednesday, parts of Southeast Eddy Street, Southeast Kane Street and Southeast Giles Street remained closed from Southeast Marsters Avenue to Southeast Booth Avenue after a raging Parrott Creek washed road materials away.

Crews continue to clear debris from parks that were flooded and continue assessing conditions and damage. Templin Beach Park, Happy Tails Dog Park and Parrot Creek Park remain closed, as of Wednesday.
