County tallies up damage caused by flood

Submitted report


 


Local response agencies continue to search along the Blanco River for two children missing from the Memorial Weekend flood of the Blanco River, according to a statement from Hays County Monday. Nine individuals have been confirmed deceased and identified.


In Hays County as of June 21, there have been 1,628 registrations for federal aid for a total of $6.3 million. 


In Caldwell County, there have been 213 registrations for a total of $810,000.


Those amounts reflect a raw dollar figure of funds committed for these registrations to date pending final determination of insurance benefits and damage assessment. It is not a number that can be equally distributed among those registered to come up with a per person dollar figure.


The estimate for public assistance remains at $33 million at this time. That figure may change as water recedes and areas of the county are more easily accessed for damage estimates. A separate estimate of damaged businesses is not yet available.
