Yeah, I'm wondering why exactly the sirens are going off because if it's for the flood
there's a bunch of people from my fraternity that are willing to go out like right now
and go and help.
Okay, what has happened is we're evacuating Riverside Park, Central Park, and Lincoln
Park?
Okay.
Okay.
Yeah, my dad owns a rental property down there in Riverside Park too and I just called him
and let him know and we just wanted to know exactly why so we could go help if we need
to be.
Well, at this point we're evacuating people because they are in danger of the Lincoln
Park site.
So it's Riverside, Central, and Lincoln.
That we're evacuating.
Anybody else outside those areas, we're telling them that if you live in a basement or garden
level apartment to move to a first floor.
Okay.
Alright.
Thank you very much.
Bye.
