Did you experience damage during the storms on 4/17 and 4/18/2026? Please take a moment to complete a Public Damage Report. Access the report at https://veoci.com/v/p/form/99zytxjzcdky?c=346309

From the McLean County Emergency Management Agency:

“It is important that as many people, that experienced damage, as possible complete the self-reports. You may not need assistance, but for us to hope to qualify for any help from the state or federal governments we need to prove significant damage in the county. There are many people that are uninsured or under-insured that will need help and it’s our duty to do all we can for them.
Post storm response is a long process, we appreciate your patience and all the partners with which we are working.”
