Our neighborhood added a generator . . .

While walking the dog around the school across the street, I noticed a generator has been placed next to the transformers. the whole area is (and has been) enclosed with a 6-7 foot fence.

I know I never saw it there before. Schools just usually tough it out when there is no power.

I wonder why they have one now ? ? ? ?

Personally, I have thought for a while that the schools would be used for area help and shelter with food brought in from the Sr. and Jr. high school cafeterias.

Ah . . . .what we aren't being told we can deduce with our eyes!

Hmmmm. Which school district might that be? Or if you prefer, which county?

Last yr I was living in Irving Tx and working in a Jr. High school there. Sometime around April or May the Red Cross came into the school and totally assessed it for a shelter for Y2K and they told us exactly what it was for. So yes...the schools will be used for that purpose.
