The Mayor’s Disaster Declaration provides the city the ability to control gatherings of citizens and visitors if it becomes necessary, starts a process for reimbursements to the city government for cost incurred, and kicks in the emergency management plan. Comal County Judge Sherman Krause is signing a similar declaration for the county soon. It lasts 7 days and can be extended an additional 7 days.
