'It's stressful': Residents worried potential storm could cause more damage

Cromwell Pope who lives in the Preserve of Hobe Sound in Martin County told WPTV he’s thankful the county cleared his street of debris.

“They did an excellent job,” said Pope. “The garbage wasn’t on my ground for two days.”

Jim Gorten, public works director with Martin County, said they cleared over 50,000 cubic yards of debris since Hurricane Milton.

But while the clean-up process is wrapping up on Wednesday, Pope is worried about another storm that might bring impacts next week.

“Some of us don’t even have windows yet,” said Pope. “Some of us need roof repairs, so the wind would only damage it.”

WPTV brought Pope’s and other residents concerns to Gorten, who said the county will be ready.
