ATTENTION GC RESIDENTS:
Due to last night’s storms, there are lots of trees and limbs down in GC. There were 60+ MPH sustained winds for 15 minutes plus. Power was out downtown and other areas.
Stop lights at the intersection on the south side of town were destroyed.
Please be aware there are many trees and tree limbs down blocking streets. Even some power lines.
According to Superintendent Martin, the City lost 50+ trees not counting trees on private property.
City parks are closed until further notice.
City crews will be working overtime this weekend cleaning up.
Residents are asked to pile tree debris caused by the storm next to the street, not on the street. It may take several weeks to clean up from all the damage.
Please be patient while the City crew works diligently to clean up the damage as efficiently as they can. Thank you for your cooperation!
