FEMA To Assess Flood Damage In Santa Fe

Monday, July 30th, 2018 Property

Federal Emergency Management Agency teams will arrive in Santa Fe early next week to begin flood damage assessments, the city said in a news release. State and city personnel will assist the assessment teams in documenting damage to homes and businesses, with the potential for the state to use the information to request a major disaster declaration, which would open up federal assistance programs. “Having FEMA’s resources will allow us to bring more help to more people much faster,” Mayor Alan Webber said in a statement. Dozens of homes sustained “major” damage in Monday’s floods, with at least six classified by city inspectors as “likely beyond repair.”
