Wright County under Emergency Declaration
|
|
CLARION --- Wright County is officially in a state of emergency. The Wright County Board of Supervisors this morning passed a Declaration of Emergency for the county. Anybody in the rural portion of Wright County experiencing damage should report to Wright County Sheriff Paul Schultz at 515-532-3722, or Wright County Emergency Management Director Jim Lester at 515-602-6821 to fill out forms. Anyone experiencing damage inside the city limits of their community should contact their city hall to fill out the forms. Reports will be turned over to state and federal authorities for financial consideration of reimbursement for damages. This however does not guarantee any reimbursement. Authorities are asking people to stay away from standing water around or in your home to avoid any risk of injury from electrical shock. Wright County authorities say they’ve seen several homes with unstable basement walls, and they are directing people to stay out of saturated confined spaces such as basements as they may collapse.
