$2 million awarded in housing in state

8/2/93

EARTH CITY - The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has provided Missouri flood victims a total of $2 million in housing assistance (funds for rent) this year, with more than 2,500 people receiving help.

Flood victims needing a temporary home and people with rental property available are requested to call (800) 853-3362.

By Wednesday, 254 disaster loans for a total of $7.1 million had been approved by the Small Business Administration in Missouri.

Two mobile application centers have been provided by FEMA. They will circulate throughout Missouri to take applications for assistance. Their first visits scheduled in Northeast Missouri are: Aug. 2 and 3, Kirksville at the Adair County Courthouse; Aug. 4 and 5 at Kahoka at the Clark County Courthouse.

Flood victims may also apply by phone by calling (800) 462-9029.

The FEMA office also announced that Amtrak has made arrangements with United Airlines and TWA to offer reduced fares on a space-available basis to displaced passengers until Aug. 9. Travelers must display a rail ticket for an affected Amtrak route to be eligible.
