We have received reports of a group of individuals wearing reflective vests going door-to-door throughout town soliciting.

At this time, these individuals have not come to City Hall to obtain the required solicitation permit. Because they have not obtained a permit, we have no way to verify who they are, who they represent, or whether they are legitimate.

If someone from this group comes to your home, please contact the Police Department so the situation can be addressed.

As a reminder, if anyone comes to your door soliciting, you have the right to ask to see their City-issued solicitation permit. Legitimate solicitors will be able to provide it upon request.

EARTHQUAKE UPDATE

Early this morning (around 5:25 a.m.), a magnitude 5.0 earthquake struck just southeast of Spearman. It was felt as far as Amarillo, Oklahoma City, and Tulsa. As of this posting, no damage or injuries have been reported but we want our residents prepared, not surprised. Aftershocks are likely. Earthquakes this size are often followed by smaller aftershocks for days, sometimes weeks. Most will be minor, but stay alert.

If you feel shaking:
*Drop, Cover, and Hold On — get under sturdy furniture, protect your head/neck, hold on until shaking stops
*If you're in bed, stay there and cover your head with a pillow
*If outdoors, move away from buildings, power lines, and trees
*If driving, pull over away from overpasses/bridges and stay in the vehicle until shaking stops

After an aftershock:
*Check yourself and others for injuries before checking property
*Inspect your home for gas leaks (smell of gas, hissing sound), damaged wiring, and structural cracks
*Check chimneys, water heaters, and shelving for shifting or damage
*Keep an eye on kids and pets, who may be frightened

SMELL GAS?
Leave the house immediately, don't flip any switches or light anything, and call the City of Spearman at 806-659-2524 to report it. DO NOT TRY TO SHUT THE GAS OFF.

We're monitoring USGS updates and will share anything new as it comes in. For gas leaks or utility issues, call 806-659-2524. For life-threatening emergencies, always call 911.

Stay safe, and look out for your neighbors especially the elderly.
