Chatham County Recovery Efforts Continue Following Hurricane Helene

Disaster Assistance for Hurricane Helene now open to residents of Chatham County.

Chatham County’s critical workforce has been operating at full capacity to support recovery efforts after Hurricane Helene.

The County's Public Works Department has been actively clearing roadways of trees and debris. Residents are encouraged to place debris at the edge of the roadway, ensuring it's clear of mailboxes, fire hydrants, meter readers, and other obstacles to help crews work efficiently. The County has activated it's debris removal contract and Ash-Britt will start pick up debris in unicorportated Chatham County soon.
