Did you have personal damages in the February Ice Storm? Look here.

Yesterday, the Governor announced a statewide effort to collect damage assessment data for this unprecedented event. This information is being collected to help officials across the state gain an understanding of damages for individuals throughout Texas. EMCs will have direct access to all reporting via WebEoc on the Recovery Common Operating Picture Board.

Our objective in this effort is to demonstrate the scale of this disaster at the local level. As such, this will be a local effort with support from the state. Consider pushing out the access link and QR code on social media for the best results. Our previous use of this product has yielded excellent results in multiple large disasters. With this detailed information, we will be able to demonstrate the total impact statewide.

Feel free to use your local seal or office name with this distribution. The success of this effort will assist the local jurisdiction with the eligibility to potential federal programs.

The City is not able to answer questions about this. We don't have all the info, and we are helping the State of Texas to get the word out to folks.

If you are a small business or a church and have damages, get an email to our Emergency Coordinator, Tom Jenkins at sacemc@co.san-augustine.tx.us  Those damages apply to our County and may help get a FEMA declaration which in turn may help everyone.
