On May 8, a flash flood struck the Borough of Honesdale after a large underground pipe carrying the Fourth Street Creek suddenly gave way. The resulting surge of water damaged homes, flooded streets, and left the community reeling.
Radio Catskill’s Patricio Robayo spoke with Honesdale Mayor Derek Williams about the emergency response, the impact on residents, and what’s being done to prevent future disasters. Mayor Williams, often called the “walking mayor” for his hands-on leadership style, shares how the community pulled together—and what the road to recovery looks like for Honesdale.
