Our media partners were a huge asset as well, and we thank them for assisting us in getting critical information out to the public.
As you can see, and effort like this is massive, and we can’t thank our partner agencies enough for their help.
We also appreciate our local leadership for the incredible support, as well as our elected officials for assisting us in pushing support requests to the State and Federal Government.
If there are any agencies I missed, please list them below.
I would also like to extend my sincere gratitude to the community for the overwhelming support that was received. Valencia County should be proud.
Last but certainly not least, to my amazing staff and crews that went above and beyond this week, putting in long hours every day.
