A regional state of emergency declared following a week of heavy rain, hurricane force winds and flooding. Palmerston North sustained little damage in comparison to our regional neighbours, which is cold comfort to those who were directly affected. My heart goes out to you all. I am involved in welfare liaison which has meant I have not been able to attend two brief council committee meetings in the week ended 20th February. All LTCCP meetings were attended and I managed to get along to the Community Development committee meeting.
We have opened our home as overflow accommodation to those who have had to evacuate so I expect these next few weeks will be busy ones.
