Call for Katrina Evacuees to Register with City of Plano


Posted: September 7, 2005

All Hurricane Katrina evacuees currently residing in Plano need to register through the City of Plano Evacuee Processing Center to receive the maximum assistance available.

The Evacuee Processing Center is located at Central Fire Station, 1901 Avenue K. It is open daily from 1:00pm to 7:00pm.

Registration for an evacuee badge is fast and easy, with the badge providing access to donations, housing and other services, including medical services. Registration also enables the City to know where evacuees are located to provide appropriate support.

The First Baptist Church of Plano, 1300 E. 15th Street, is set up to distribute clothing, food, toiletries, toys, and infant care products to persons who are registered with the City. Their operating hours are Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, 11:00am – 7:00pm for both distribution and collection of items.

The City is working with appropriate agencies to help coordinate long and short-term housing, transportation, workforce and medical assistance. In addition, arrangements are being made with a local travel agency to provide free relocation to another area or state for residence.

City of Plano registration ensures you have access to these important services and more.

If you are an evacuee of Hurricane Katrina,
currently residing in Plano, please register yourself and any family members with you, including children.

Again, Central Fire Station is located at 1901 Avenue K, adjacent Historic Downtown Plano between the intersections of 15th Street at Avenue K and Park at Avenue K.
