Eric Arenholz, Emergency Management (EMA) Director, told the Franklin County Board of Supervisors that the Governor issued a disaster proclamation for the area after last week’s storms, opening avenues for state assistance to affected residents.

Arenholz advised that individuals seeking help should contact the state, the North Iowa Area Council of Governments (NIACOG), or his office. The update was presented during the Board’s regular session on July 28, 2026; the minutes record the proclamation and the available channels for assistance but do not list specific assistance programs or eligibility criteria.
