Baldwin County AL puts Emergency Facilities to the Test


Hurricane Gustav skimmed by Baldwin County Alabama without doing major damage to the area, but Foley Alabama city council members are looking to help property owners in the meantime.  The City Council hopes to pass an ordinance before their regularly scheduled September 15th meeting to allow property owners to make temporary repairs on their homes due to storm damage; currently property owners would have to wait for an approval of a building permit to make changes, but this obviously does not help in emergency situations. 

Alabama’s Gulf Coast residents remained safe during the effects of hurricane Gustav as the Baldwin County Coliseum in Robertsdale was put to use housing 300 residents and over 150 people took shelter at the Faulkner State Community College in Bay Minette Alabama. Although they avoided major damage from this hurricane, Foley Alabama Mayor John Koniar enforced the need for residents to stay on guard about the latest storm developments as Gustav isn’t the last of them.
