Know what Waco's recovery reporting does
Waco emergency management's recovery page links to the state iSTAT damage survey for assessment and resource-needs information. Submitting a report is not a repair booking, insurance claim or guarantee of aid.
Report a drainage concern separately
Use MyWaco for a blocked public storm inlet or other service concern. Do not push leaves or debris into an inlet. Meanwhile, a roof opening and wet interior need property-specific assessment; clearing a street issue will not repair the roof.

Use recovery reporting for assessment, not booking
Waco's emergency-management recovery page links to the state iSTAT damage survey for assessment and resource needs. Submit damage information through that route, then arrange a separate roof and wet-interior assessment. The survey is neither a repair appointment nor an insurance claim, and it does not guarantee aid.
