Much-needed mobile generators ordered in the fall still have not arrived in Dallas and fixed generators at specific sites won’t be installed anytime soon.
Much-needed mobile generators ordered in the fall still have not arrived and fixed generators at specific sites won’t be installed anytime soon.The nationwide supply chain crisis is now partially affecting how Dallas plans to prepare for extreme cold this winter.
Following last year’s deadly winter storm, the city of Dallas spent $1.8 million on fixed generators to be placed at eight warming stations, such as libraries and rec centers, to keep the power running if it goes out. "It seems very inefficient that we would’ve purchased these and not installed them and it would take so long to do so," said councilwoman Cara Mendelsohn.
Oak Lawn United Methodist Church is now able to legally act as an emergency shelter and even get some assistance from the city. Up until last year, the church faced fines for operating as a shelter.
