Audrain County is one of 18 Missouri couties recently accorded eligibility in a financial assistance program resulting from a previous flood disaster declaration announced for the state. One photo shows city, county and special district representatives and certain non-profit organization officials attending a briefing Wednesday at the Community Room of the Audrain County Courthouse. The other photo shows Brenda Gerlach, a public assistance specialist from the Missouri State Emergency Management Agency leading the applicant’s briefing, explaining reimbursement procedures and helping officials file requests for public assistance.
