A northern Kentucky county hard hit by spring flooding is receiving nearly $630,000 in federal money to fix damaged roads, parks and buildings.
Kathleen Murray, with the Federal Emergency Management Agency, says seven Kenton County governments will share the money along with the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet.
Those jurisdictions had to repair road slips, remove debris and fix damage caused by flooding in April and May, according to The Kentucky Enquirer (http://bit.ly/ojmE1T).
FEMA is covering 75 percent of the costs. The state is paying 12 percent and local governments will cover the rest, mostly through in-kind services, according to Steve Hensley, Kenton County’s director of Homeland Security and Emergency Management.
Among the communities receiving funds are Independence, Villa Hills, Covington, Ludlow, Taylor Mill and Crescent Springs.
