FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) â Kentuckyâs request for individual assistance for 22 additional counties hit by severe flooding has been approved by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, Gov. Andy Beshear said Friday.
Assistance can include grants for temporary housing and home repairs, plus low-cost loans to cover uninsured property losses, the governorâs office said.
Other programs can help individuals and business owners recover from the flooding that swamped large swaths of Kentucky in late February and the first half of March.
âThere will now be more resources available for Kentuckians and Kentucky communities to rebuild after the historic flooding,â Beshear said.
