City Manager Mark Biernacki has announced that the shelter for residents who have been displaced by the recent flood will be moved to the DeKalb Park District Sports and Recreation Center, 1765 South 4th St. effective at 2 p.m. Friday. The original collection center at NIU’s Campus Recreation Center will close at 1:30 p.m.

Biernacki expressed gratitude to NIU for their quick response in setting up the collection center shortly after midnight and the willingness of the Park District to offer their aid. The Park District facility is better suited to serve for a longer period.
