Texas Launches ‘Rebuild Texas’ Website To Provide Hurricane Recovery Updates

Visitors to the site will be provided with real-time recovery information, assistance in navigating state and federal resources and access to state agencies.

Gov. Greg Abbott announced on Thursday that the General Land Office Commissioner George P. Bush will head up the state’s short- and long-term Hurricane Harvey housing recovery efforts.

Abbott also issued a disaster proclamation on Aug. 23 certifying that Hurricane Harvey posed a threat of imminent disaster for several counties. There are 59 counties on this list and yesterday he updated the proclamation and declared a disaster in Milam and San Augustine counties too. 

These are a couple of the daily updates provided by the Governor’s Commission to Rebuild Texas on the newly launched website www.RebuildTexas.Today, a real-time information resource for local officials in the communities impacted by Hurricane Harvey.

Visitors to the site will be provided with real-time recovery information, assistance in navigating state and federal resources and access to state agencies.
