FEMA trained Damage Assessment teams to assess property damage.
Isabella County Emergency Management announces that beginning Sunday, June 25, FEMA trained Damage Assessment teams will be conducting a preliminary assessment of storm damage by going door to door in areas believed to be impacted by the recent flooding. Certified assessors will be wearing identifiable vests and are providing this service in cooperation with the County’s Disaster Response.
Collecting this preliminary data is necessary to fulfill the requirements of the Declaration of Emergency. It helps the State determine if assistance will be granted. If it is determined that any assistance is available to residents or property owners through the state, additional information will be provided regarding the process and procedures.
Residents and owners of damaged property are urged to call 989-779-1452 if a volunteer does not stop at their location on Sunday.
