Allows for federal disaster funds to offset costs
The Fayette County Commission Monday officially declared a state of emergency for the period following last week’s ice storm.
The designation allows the county to be eligible for state and federal recovery funds at a future date.
The commission was also effusive in praising county employees and volunteers who helped weather the storm, from the public works staff to emergency management officials who staffed the county’s emergency operations center.
