Board authorizes secondary roads to use county UEI number to seek FEMA funds
Summary
The board approved a resolution allowing the secondary roads department to use Woodbury County's Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) number to file FEMA documents, enabling access to federal recovery funds; the vote was unanimous.
Laura Sievers of Secondary Roads read a resolution required by Iowa Homeland Security that authorizes the secondary roads department to use Woodbury County's Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) number when filing FEMA‑related documentation.
The resolution notes the county assumes any risk involved and authorizes the secondary roads department to proceed. Supervisor Ong moved the resolution, which passed on a 5–0 vote.
County staff said this aligns the roads department with state requirements and preserves access to FEMA funding when disaster‑related reimbursement is necessary.
