Commission authorizes application for Missouri disaster assistance after storm cleanup
Summary
After crews worked storm cleanup, the county approved permission to apply for Missouri disaster assistance to seek a 50/50 reimbursement for debris removal and road repairs from a recent storm.
The St. Francois County Commission approved asking state disaster-assistance officials for reimbursement of storm-related cleanup costs following a recent severe storm.
Chair (speaker 4) introduced the request to apply for Missouri disaster assistance, and Road & Bridge staff (speaker 6) described crews' work removing trees, clearing debris and repairing roadways after the storm. Staff said cleanup work extended through Monday and that the program reimburses eligible costs at a 50/50 match.
Commissioners voted to grant permission to apply; the minutes record the motion passed (the chair said "passes here on 5"). Staff noted they have not finalized total dollar figures and will calculate final costs before submitting the application.
Next steps include compiling detailed damage and cost records and submitting an application to the state to pursue reimbursement under the Missouri disaster assistance program.
