City manager Mark Rohr said Friday that 60 mobile homes have been ordered through FEMA. The first batch was headed toward Joplin from Selma, Ala., and was expected to arrive late Friday or early Saturday.
The 62 people now taking shelter at Missouri Southern State University will be given preference for the trailers. The homes are fully furnished and residents who occupy them would be responsible for utilities.

Randy,
I heard on KY3 earlier this evening that they have not determined a location for these trailers and thus while they may arrive, residents won't be in them until sewer setups and other accomodations are fixed for them. Can you confirm this?
No, but if I come across something, I will post it.
