Matt RyersonCLEVELAND, Tenn. — The rebuilding effort after the April 27, 2011, tornadoes in Bradley County is winding down.
A new house is under construction on Randolph Samples Road for one family, while a groundbreaking ceremony is set for Thursday for another home on Lee Street. And the paperwork is in progress for the final home to be rebuilt because of the tornadoes.
The deadline for contacting the Bradley County Long Term Recovery Committee was in April.
“We are winding down,” said Lisa Mantooth, caseworker for the committee, and that time came sooner than expected.
“That’s an amazing thing,” she said. “And it’s because of all the collaboration from the community and others that have allowed us to really meet the needs.”
