8/30/19 @ 4:15 p.m. - At the Special Meeting held at 3:00 p.m. today, County Manager, Mike Mullin, and Emergency Management Director, Greg Foster, provided an update from the 1:20 p.m. call with the National Hurricane Service. Every call results in a significant change from the call before as Hurricane Dorian's track continues to shift. Another Special Meeting will be held for 3:00 p.m. tomorrow at which time the Board will discuss its latest track, declaration of a local State of Emergency and possible evacuation orders.

Both the Road & Bridge and Facilities Maintenance Department will have employees answering phones through the weekend. Road & Bridge has two crews working this weekend, cleaning ditches and culverts, in preparation of the upcoming rain. They also have a crew on stand-by to address any road issues that may occur. Facilities Maintenance will be securing the historic courthouse, removing mobi mats from the beach and addressing any other issues that need to be addressed prior to the storm.

FDOT has staged pumps between Chester Road and Lofton Creek to address flooding on State Road 200 in low lying areas. They have also indicated that all construction will be temporarily suspended, all lanes will be open, and all non-essential shoulder closures will be removed.

Please check back for storm updates tomorrow.

Just wondering if the county roads and bridges is going to attempt to do anything with the ditch that runs across my property during the last hurricane my property was flooded with water from the adjoining property on lem turner 154 acres draining through my yard causes significant damage
A survey crew came an surveyed the ditch in the first block of spring lake dr but has not done anything else about it
No doubt that we are going to have more issues I just wish the county manager would do something might be too late

I’m forwarding your message to our public works director and road and bridge director now. Would you please call the road and bridge office this morning at 530-6175 and leave your phone number so someone had a way to follow up with you? Not sure how big the issue is or what can be done this weekend, but I’m sure they can send one of the crews out to take a look at it before the storm arrives.
