Summary
Emergency Management Director Gregg Sweeten informed McDonald County commissioners Feb. 2 that FEMA has partially approved the county's $115,192 repair request for Dead End Lane, authorizing $70,267.12 after finding the county legally responsible for 61% of the damaged area.
Emergency Management Director Gregg Sweeten told McDonald County commissioners Feb. 2 that FEMA has accepted and partially approved the county's project request to repair damage at Dead End Lane, approving $70,267.12 of a $115,192.00 claim.
FEMA determined the county is legally responsible for 61% of the area needing repair; that share explains the partial approval amount. Western Commissioner Rick Lett said he contacted contractor Granger Dirtworks to schedule the county's portion of the project.
The minutes record that commissioners were notified the FEMA determination had been made and that scheduling with Granger Dirtworks is underway. The record does not specify a construction start date, detailed scope of repairs, or whether additional local funding will be required beyond the FEMA-approved portion.
The commission moved on to other business and adjourned; it is scheduled to reconvene Feb. 4, 2026.
