Rep. Barbara Wheeler (R-Crystal Lake) is asking residents of McHenry and Lake counties to actively help make sure they get the assistance they need during flood-related emergencies.
On her website, Wheeler points out that since counties bare the responsibility of reporting damage to commercial and residential property in order to get federal and state aid, residents can be of great assistance. Those calling in need to notify officials if they have flood insurance.
In McHenry County, residents can call 815-334-4560 or go to the county's website at www.co.mchenry.il.us/ to report flood damage. The website also has information on resources.
