In light of the recent dual storms last Thursday it is proper to note the speed and professional manner of the Shenandoah Street Department and also the emergency personnel. These were very dangerous storms including hail and straight line winds. We commend those who quickly clean up and maintain a working functioning community.
At the Shenandoah City Council meeting on Tuesday, 23 August, 2011, Mayor Richard Hunt expressed his appreciation for these personnel on behalf of the City Council.
Many citizens should also gain acknowledgment from the effects of these storms. Sidney, Iowa, by mandate was shut down due to storm damage. Other communities such as Coin and Essex received excess storm damage. Many people from all around pitched in with their gloves and chainsaws to lighten the burden of those fellow citizens. Communities and agencies donated resources for the relief effort.
Though disasters are undesired they do help us "regroup" as a society. It gives us pause and reflection. It serves to prompt us to action for the common good of those around you.
