Due to the severe storm damage from last night’s severe weather, the Marshall County Commissioners enacted a Disaster Emergency Declaration.
The declaration declares a “state of emergency” in the county, and the commissioners have invoked portions of the Indiana Code applicable to the storm's conditions, IC 10-14-3-29.
The declaration states, “All public offices and employees of Marshall County are hereby directed to exercise the utmost diligence in the discharge of duties required of them for the duration of the emergency and in the execution of emergency laws, regulations, and directives, whether state or local.”
It goes on to say, “All residents are called upon and director to comply with necessary emergency measures, to cooperate with public officials and disaster service forces in executing emergency operations plans, and to obey and comply with the lawful direction of properly identified officers.”
The Emergency Declaration orders all operating forces to direct their communications and requests for assistance and operations to the Emergency Operations Center.
This Disaster Emergency Declaration shall be in effect until 11 p.m. on Wednesday, April 9th.
