FEMA Set To Pay Escambia County About $10 Million For Flood Damage
September 27, 2014
The numbers are in from the federal government on the April floods and how much they are willing to pay local governments for repairs to public infrastructure such as roads and bridges.
FEMA and the State Division of Emergency Management have been conducting evaluations to determine just how much damage was caused the floodwaters. The Division of Emergency Management issued a report with a preliminary estimate of how much money counties across the panhandle might receive.
Local governments are required to provide a 25 percent match.
The FEMA allocation for Escambia County comes in at $9,965,177.53 with a local match of $3,321,725.84 required. The federal allocation for Santa Rosa County is $2,195,342.63 with a non-federal local match of $765,342.63 required.
