Okay, right now we're doing a mandatory evacuation of Lincoln Drive area and then we're going
to be asking the people in the low-lying areas by the other parks to evacuate and then anybody
within the city, if you're on a ground level or a basement apartment, to get to a first
level.
My next question is, we've been sandbagging at our house and our dikes, the water is coming
up pretty high.
Is there any way to try and get it together quickly?
I don't.
Right now we're looking at the Lincoln dike failing.
Okay, so the water is going to come through.
I've got to go.
Where are you at?
3850 Selma Road.
I can tell them but I won't guarantee that they'll get anybody out there, okay?
Uh-huh.
