City begins long road to recovery

Mayor Sylvester Turner said city staff will interview the nearly 350 residents who stayed in one of five local shelters overnight to determine how best to help them recover their possessions and their lives after Monday's widespread flooding.Turner also asked residents whose homes or businesses flooded to report the damage to the Houston 311 help line at 713-837-0311. That information will help officials submit the formal report needed to qualify for federal disaster assistance.
