About 10 people and 200 homes were lost in the July flooding on Sandy Creek, many of which were in Travis County. After millions of dollars spent and earmarked for recovery efforts, and nearly six months have gone by, how are the flood survivors faring? KXAN’s Grace Reader joins host Nikki DaVaughn to talk about her recent reporting on Travis County’s 9-1-1 call logs from the July 5 emergency, and what the calls revealed about how calls for help were answered and addressed. Plus, they discuss what’s different about flood victims in Travis County compared to Kerr County, where more than 100 people were killed and one Camp Mystic camper remains missing. And, catch up on KXAN’s investigation into warning systems along the Guadalupe River here.
