(KLZA)-- Richardson County Commissioners met for an emergency meeting Thursday afternoon at the courthouse in Falls City. The meeting was called following a devastating wind storm that hit portions of Richardson County Wednesday afternoon.
Straight line winds caused severe damage to public and private property, disrupted utility service and endangered the health and safety of citizens.
Commissioners voted to authorize a declaration of emergency authorized under Nebraska Statute and will execute for and on behalf of Richardson County, the expenditure of emergency funds from all available sources, invoking mutual aid agreements, and the application to the State of Nebraska for assistance from the Governor's Emergency Fund and any other resources he deems necessary in the fulfillment of his duties.
