County of Lexington to hold two community meetings regarding CDBG-DR funding for flood relief
July 26, 2016
The County of Lexington Department of Community Development will host two community meetings to present information regarding the Community Development Block Grant Disaster Recovery Program, and the County’s ongoing flood recovery efforts.
The CDBG-DR Program was developed by the Federal government to assist in disaster recovery efforts, such as the ongoing efforts within Lexington County following the 2015 October rain event. The program is aimed to address the unmet needs of low- to middle-income residents.
Lexington County residents in the Irmo and St. Andrews areas, especially those that suffered from flood-related damages in the Challedon, Pineglen, Coldstream and Whitehall neighborhoods, are encouraged to attend these meetings so they can learn more about disaster recovery relief efforts.
The meetings are scheduled as follows:
Date: July 28, 2016
Time: 6:00 p.m.
Location: Seven Oaks Park
200 Leisure Lane
Columbia, SC 29210
County of Lexington Community Development Department staff will be on hand to answer residents’ questions following the presentations.
For more information, residents are asked to contact the County of Lexington Community Development Department by calling (803) 785-8121, emailing[email protected] or by visiting www.lexco.sc.gov/departments/DeptAH/communitydevelopment/Pages/CDBG-DR.aspx.
