Tuesday, at 1 p.m. in the Tower Gate Pavilion on the Clay County Fairgrounds in Spencer, the Federal Emergency Management Agency will open a Disaster Recovery Center. The center will be open from 1-6 p.m. on July 2, and then 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. every day until further notice.
It will provide one-on-one assistance for people affected by the recent flooding and storms. Recovery specialists from FEMA and the U.S. Small Business Administration will provide information on available services, explain disaster assistance programs and help people complete or check the status of applications for federal assistance.
Later this week, on July 5 and 6, a Multi-Agency Resource Center (MARC) will open to provide more assistance opportunities for Spencer residents. Further information will be provided later.
