City Council member Jennifer Staubach Gates updated neighbors last night with the latest after the tornado, which packed 140-mph winds:
Traffic:
Check this map for major street closures. This will be updated twice daily, once every evening by 8 p.m. and in the morning by 9 a.m. The map can be found here.
ONCOR:
ONCOR is down to 900 outages, and workers are on the job 24 hours a day, even during rain.
Work crews:
Seven work crews are hard at work. Once an area has been declared “clear,” our Transportation and Dallas Fire Rescue crews come through to do the final check to ensure all lighting and signals are operational. There are now 75 sanitation trucks (versus the 22) on the job to collect debris.
Here’s a map detailing where crews are working:

Contractor best practices:
Some residents are concerned with contractors’ price gauging. Gates says the City Attorney’s Office has created this one pager for best practices with contractors. Follow this link for more information.
Building inspection:
For homes who need a building permit to turn on electricity or need a permit to rebuild their roof, please use this one-pager for all relevant information.
Preston Hollow lunch:
Preston Hollow Presbyterian Church, 9800 Preston Road, is hosting a lunch with Mi Cocina for Preston Hollow residents from noon to 4 p.m. They will be passing out lunches and coffees in the neighborhood and in the church on Friday and Saturday.
Central Market meals: 
The Central Market/HEB Mobile Kitchen will be at the Preston Royal Shopping Center parking lot at the corner of Preston and Royal. Meals will be available to first responders, construction workers, and neighbors affected by the storm. Meals will be served through Sunday:
Breakfast from 8 a.m. – 10 a.m.
Lunch from noon – 2 p.m.
Dinner from 4 – 6 p.m.
They are observing curfew beginning at 7 p.m.
FEMA:
City, County and State have done their part to apply for funding. The federal government has 30 days to decide if we are eligible. It is possible that we will get City and County funding, but it looks unlikely that we will get federal funding for single-family residential homes due to the high rates of insured private properties.
Also: The Dallas Morning News did a round-up of organizations that are offering help to those affected by the tornado. The list includes everything from where to get free wifi, showers, meals and movies to free storage and co-working spaces.
