FEMA Assists With Temporary Housing
This past weekend marked seven weeks since flash flooding heavily damaged parts of Mingo and Wyoming counties, along with others. Gilbert Mayor Vivian Livingood says the damage remains evident, and life is not back to normal for many residents, although major improvements are occurring every day. On Friday, FEMA and the West Virginia Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Management toured Parks Manor, located 18 miles from Gilbert. FEMA determines who is eligible for temporary housing at the site which has more than 40 mobile homes. Parks Manor is located near Matewan.
The housing hotline number is : 1-877-444-0422.
