PROGRAM
Randy Henderson introduced our guest speaker, Bill Guy, Reno County Emergency Management Director.
Between late winter snowstorms, flooding and windstorms, Bill Guy has been more than busy. Whenever lives and/or property are endangered, Bills department is directly involved in coordinating multiple agencies in the relief effort. In the most recent flood alone, 400 homes were affected. Many private businesses assisted by donating supplies, equipment or labor.
If you or your business have suffered damage, please notify Bill Guy so that the information may be included in the total damage estimate used for disaster declaration and relief.
Bill also warned of fraudulent schemes involving individuals on the telephone claiming to be FEMA officials while asking for bank account numbers and phony contractors asking for money up front but not completing any construction.
Finally, the water from the floods is now spawning mosquito populations that pose both a nuisance and the threat of West Nile disease.
Bill thanked the community for its continued support in these times of crisis.
