The Big Cleanup has begun
There are still thousands of people in a tough situation, so most of our resources are directed to helping those parts of our District. But for those who are able to go about things as normal, we're starting to plan the next phase.
The Big Clean Up
Some quick info:

The Civil Defence priority in our Region is to restore power, water and roadways. There might be a delay before we can get on to cleaning up the mess in parks and on road-edges.
