Thanks to everyone that participated in our "After the Storm" quiz last week. Can you guess which question stumped the most people? If you said the question about generators, then you'd be right. So this week I'd like to follow-up with an article written by our own Development Services director, Tom Hosey, on the subject of portable generator safety.

Some time ago, while Tom was in Houston and serving on the board of directors for the Building Officials Association  of Texas (BOAT), he wrote the following article for the BOAT newsletter. It has been modified just a little so that it is applicable to our state. While the article is longer than our typical blog post, it is full of great information and worth the read. Enjoy!
