Governor Greg Abbott announced Friday that the federal government approved Texas’s appeal for FEMA Individual Assistance for 20 counties affected by July storms and flooding. Counties covered include Kerr, Bexar, Uvalde and Val Verde. The announcement concerns assistance eligibility; individual residents should check FEMA requirements and application details. A separate appeal for hazard mitigation funding remains pending.
The lighter side
The paperwork has finally caught up with the floodwaters. Unfortunately, paperwork has never been known for its swimming speed.
