The Small Business Administration (SBA) asked us to pass this important message on to our members...
Good Afternoon,
Recently your county was added for Federal Disaster Assistance to an already declared disaster as a result of flooding that began January 7, 2008 and continuing.
Homeowners, Renters and Businesses of all sizes are eligible to apply for a wide range of federal and state disaster assistance programs. Affected individuals and business owners may apply for assistance immediately by calling the toll-free registration number, 1-800-621-3362 (FEMA).
Those that are referred to the Small Business Administration for a low-interest disaster loan are urged to complete the application and return it as soon as possible. Even if you don’t want a loan, completing the loan application is an important step in the recovery assistance process. Homeowners and renters that do not qualify for a loan, may be considered for other forms of assistance.
The filing deadline is March 31, 2008 so we encourage everyone who had damages to register, complete and return their loan application so that we can get the process started in getting some assistance to those that have had damages.
Currently our loan approvals are over $2.8 Million
