County and United Way to use a portal to match volunteers, contractors and residents needing help
Summary
Officials said a virtual portal is live to let residents register needs and for volunteers/contractors to sign up; the county and United Way will match offers to requests and push contractor contact lists via the EDC to coordinate cleanup and repairs.
County staff described a virtual intake portal (staff reported it as live) that lets residents submit needs and allows volunteers and contractors to register capabilities; the intent is to match offers of help with residents who need assistance such as chainsaw work, tarping roofs and debris removal.
Officials said the county's economic development office will share a contractor list so the portal can connect local contractors with residents and that United Way personnel are working with county staff to manage donations and long‑term recovery coordination.
