The Herald-Zeitung-Comal County community leaders are preparing for a disaster of 2005 proportions

The Herald-Zeitung: "comal County community leaders are preparing for a disaster of 2005 proportions — or greater.

The preparations are part of a new effort to ready the county’s leaders for any situation that requires large numbers of organized, well-trained volunteers, such as the influx of hundreds of Hurricane Katrina victims who flooded the community last fall.

Although local groups and individuals rose to the occasion, refusing to let anyone in need fall through the cracks, community leaders quickly realized their response could have been enhanced with a little advance planning."
