Santa Rosa Gets TS Debby Assistance, Nothing For Escambia

July 13, 2012

Additional assistance to aid in recovery from the impacts of Tropical Storm Debby was approved Thursday for additional counties including Santa Rosa, but not Escambia.

Public assistance provides grant assistance for debris removal and emergency protective measures. Costs for repair, replacement, or restoration of disaster-damaged, publicly-owned facilities can also be covered under Public Assistance. To date, 29 counties have been approved for public assistance.

Assistance for individuals and families has been approved in 17 counties, not including Santa Rosa or Escambia.

    Escambia County needs to fix it’s drainage systems in the downtown area…let them use all this money they spent building a stadium that is losing money.

    Just so nobody gripes.
    I’m reminded of the people who tried to find out where they could get MREs after Katrina.
    The FEMA officials explained Katrina didn’t hit Florida and therefore Florida wasn’t getting aid.

    David for appropriate actions
