This morning, our emergency response teams continue assessing the area for damage from Hurricane Milton. A wind advisory has been issued for our area as the final wind bands from the storm continue throughout the day. Expect breezy and rainy conditions.
In addition to checking our roadways and stormwater infrastructure, city staff has begun inspecting municipal buildings, recreation and community centers, parks and nature trails for damage.
We are reminding all neighbors to provide clearance for all emergency vehicles and to drive cautiously as evacuees make plans to leave the area as many are unfamiliar with our streets.
Remember there also may be limbs and other debris on roadways so please drive carefully.
