On September 26, Mayor David Alfin signed a proclamation declaring a local state of emergency for the City of Palm Coast, as Hurricane Ian poses a threat to Florida. Watch the declaration here.

By issuing the proclamation for the local state of emergency, it allows the City to obtain resources on an emergency basis. It also allows for state and federal resources to quickly flow to the area.
