WILTON, Calif. — The Sacramento County Office of Emergency Services has lifted Saturday's Evacuation Order for the Wilton area.
Original story: The Sacramento County Office of Emergency Services has issued an Evacuation Order for the Wilton area due to an "anticipated rise in the Cosumnes River levels."
The areas mainly impacted are: Highway 16 and Grantline west to Highway 99, south to Valensin, and north east to Dillard and Highway 16.
Officials strongly encourage residents to get out now before roads are flooded over.
"If you are being told to leave. Listen to law enforcement and get out," said Matt Robinson, Sacramento County spokesperson. "We want to make sure that the roads are safe for everyone to get out and that everyone has the time to do so."
Lots of debris covered roadways, closing them and preventing vehicles and residents from passing. This has been ongoing since the New Years Eve storm knocked out power and trees due to strong winds.
"You can see all the debris on the fence line. The water was almost there up to that road sign where it says road closed," said Chris Shay, a Wilton resident. "People were stranded. Dillard road had 12 cars."
An evacuation shelter is located at the Chabolla Center, 600 Chabolla Avenue, Galt, 95632 and will be open 24-hours a day.
Call 2-1-1 for additional information.
