Is there a plan for door-to-door notification of residents and what messages might they give?

Residents of projected flood affected areas may receive one or all of the following messages over time depending on in which evacuation zone they live:

A. High Water Advisory - Notifies residents to prepare for potential high water that may impact homes, businesses or nearby roads. (Low risk)

B. Evacuation Advisory - Notifies residents that they may need to evacuate in the near future because high water is expected to impact homes, businesses, and nearby roads. (Moderate risk)

C. Evacuation Order - A notification of Immediate Danger. Residents are advised to evacuate because water will severely impact homes, businesses, and nearby roads. For security reasons, a curfew will be established. (High risk)

If you are not home, information will be left on your door.
