PORT ORANGE, Fla. -- With Irma packing winds of 185 mph on a collision course with the Sunshine State this weekend, City Councilman Bob Ford is incensed that one area of the city is not able to get sandbags.
"My apologies to the Eastside residents of Port Orange -- no sandbags distribution on our side of the City," Ford wrote on his Facebook page. "Have complained to City Management. No action yet, but will continue to argue for it. The area most likely to have high water is the Eastside -- so it makes no sense not to provide sandbags in this area."

Ted Noftall, a citizen watchdog, who twice has run for mayor, responded to Ford's post: "Sounds like just another SNAFU to me."
