(Sioux Rapids)– Sioux Rapids will receive more than $119,000 in new federal disaster recovery funding.
The grant comes from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and will support long-term mitigation work following the severe storms, flooding, straight-line winds and tornadoes that hit northwest Iowa in June of 2024.
The money will be used for acquisitions, elevations, mitigation reconstruction and floodproofing — all aimed at reducing future damage in areas that were heavily impacted during the 2024 disaster.
