Sorocaba heavy rainfall and flooding response
Overview
Following heavy rainfall and adverse weather, the City of Sorocaba established a 24-hour emergency response structure. Mayor Rodrigo Manga coordinated with municipal secretaries and Civil Defense agents to deploy mobile units in Jardim Guadalupe, Vila Rica, and Parque Vitória Régia 2.
To assist residents facing home flooding, the city provided shelter in local hotels. The Civil Defense began analyzing requests for material damage reimbursement on November 9. Mayor Manga reported that the Itupararanga Dam was discharging water at three times its normal rate, contributing to street flooding, and he requested a reduction in flow to mitigate the impact.
