Port and police: no mandatory evacuation yet; sandbag distribution sites posted
Summary
Port and public-safety staff reported there was no mandatory evacuation at the time and listed sandbag distribution sites at three city locations as the council prepared for Tropical Storm Bertha.
Port and public-safety staff told the council there was no mandatory evacuation order at the moment, but residents should check lines and bilge systems and prepare for high tides and wind. "Currently, there's no evacuation, mandatory evacuation at this time," the public-safety speaker said.
Sandbag locations were listed for residents: 195 Main Street at the water department (south of the tracks), 765 Wells Drive at the AJ Holloway Sports Complex, and 9370 Oak Lawn Road at Fire Station Number 9 (near the water tower). Staff said information was posted to the city's website and social media accounts.
