Weed Embarks On "Resilience Weed" Effort

You can be prepared, but few people can claim to be READY for a disaster. 

Disaster struck the city of Weed more than a year ago, in the form of a fire that burned 150 homes. 

Now the city is embarking on the Resilience Weed project, designed to get the town and its residents better prepared for similar or other disasters in the future.  The city hired Great Northern Services to assist the project; GNS's Bonnie Kubowitz visits The Exchange.
