St. Stephen Remembers Flooding Nightmare

A good chunk of Charlotte County was underwater this time last year after heavy rains lead to widespread flooding.
The Bordertown's businesses suffering serious damage along with over 100 homeowners who had their basements floods.
St. Stephen town manager John Ferguson tells CHSJ News says co-ordinating relief was a challenge.

He tells us getting donations and materials to people in a timely fashion was a real struggle after the flooding.

Since last year's flooding, Ferguson says the four Charlotte county municipalities purchased the Sentinel computer system to monitor their inventory.
So if they need a pump in one area and don't have it, they can locate it quickly and bring it there.
