Precautionary measures suggested would be: 1. Citizens are asked to visit the Civic Center and study the posted flood plain map to determine their location in relation to the flood plain. 2. Those living in the flood plain should remove documents, art works or any other valuables from basement areas or other areas that may become inundated inun-dated with water. 3. Families with children or others sleeping in basements or on floor levels that may become inundated, should have advance plans for other sleeping arraignments and have emergency evacuation plans. 4. Citizens should know where and how to shut off the main gas service and main electrical service in their dwelling in event gas furnaces, water heaters or electrical outlets become inundated. 5. Caution should be taken to evaluate all basement windows, entrances or other openings that may be low and vulnerable for water to enter; advance sandbagging may prevent damage. 6. The public should be extremely cautious with the high water in Hobble Creek. High water is always a danger to life and parents should be very watchful wat-chful of children.
