Path of destruction

Saturday, January 19, 2019

The recovery process is moving forward. All departments are back up and in full operation in their temporary locations. The outpouring of support for our city has been fabulous with over 1,200 volunteers and equipment operators coming in to help with relief efforts. Surrounding cities have assisted us in every way possible as we continue our recovery process. We are very thankful to have such support from our neighboring cities. This process is not going to be a sprint, it is going to be a marathon that will not be a quick fix. It will take years to get back to exactly where we need to be but our future is bright. Our opportunities are going to be great as we move forward through planning and hard work to accomplish the task before us. Thanks for the phone calls, texts and financial donations to help us work through this disaster. May God bless each and every one of you.

– Mayor Jerry Willis
