Cleanup begins for Greenwood, Big Spring after wind and hail damage
PERMIAN BASIN (KMID/KPEJ)- The small communities of Greenwood and Big Spring suffered some damage from hail and high winds over the weekend, now, some local businesses have come together to help clean up after the storms.
One local business was the Permian Star Construction. They were out in the Greenwood community helping with boarding up windows, skylights, and fences.
'Trying to give back,' Eugene Heflin, of Permian Star Construction, said. 'The community has been good to us. I want to teach my son to give back to.'
Heflin said he will be out helping as long as he needs to for his community.
In Big Spring, the historic Hotel Settles was also damaged. Owners were too busy to interview with us as they were cleaning up glass and boarding up windows.
Because of the extensive damages, the Mayor of the City of Big Spring, Robert Moore III issued a Declaration of Local Disaster and said he has been in contact with State officials. Also starting next week, a city-wide residential large item pick-up will take place for storm-related debris. The residents can bring in vegetation, fencing, roofing, siding, and building materials.
