Volunteer meeting postponed

A disaster volunteer meeting announced on Tuesday by Mayor Toni Iseman has been postponed.

“People who want to volunteer and have a particular skill set should contact clean-up volunteer coordinator Ann Richards at (949) 683-6242,” Iseman said. “Skill sets could range from sweat to putting up drywall.”

Volunteers should come equipped with work gloves for protection against poison oak, which is rampant in Laguna Canyon and has been squished into the muck that cascaded down the hills.

A public meeting has been scheduled for 6:30 p.m. Jan. 25 at the Susi Q to answer flood victims’ questions about insurance and loans, said Ann Quilter, volunteer disaster relief coordinator for the Laguna Beach Relief and Resource Coalition.

For more information, call Quilter at (949) 494-4180 or (949) 433-9801, the coalition at (949) 497-7121 or coalition Executive Director Donna Valenti at (949) 212-9155.
