Ingoglia says it is important to prepare residents before a potentially life-threatening storm.
“We spend a lot of money, a lot of time, and a lot of resources putting our communities back together after a storm,” he said. “I think we need to start a more proactive role in this to mitigate this to where it’s not costing endlessly.”
