(Guadalupe County) — Guadalupe County officials are renewing their call for residents and business owners to report damages from the July 5th flooding, as the number of submissions continues to rise. That’s according to Patrick Pinder, Guadalupe County emergency management coordinator and fire marshal. Officials say completing a damage report through the Texas Division of Emergency Management’s self-reporting tools — iSTAT for individuals and businesses, and pSTAT for public infrastructure — is critical for determining eligibility for future disaster assistance.
As of today, he says a total of 100 iSTAT reports have been submitted. He says this includes 82 residential properties and 18 businesses.
In addition, 10 pSTAT reports have been filed, estimating $2.582 million in public infrastructure damage.
Among residential reports:
6 homes sustained major damage
41 homes reported minor damage
14 homes were listed as affected, indicating varying degrees of impact
Residents and businesses can access the reporting portals by visiting the Guadalupe County Emergency Management webpage and clicking the iSTAT or pSTAT link.
