Lincoln and Union County residents can still receive help for recovery from severe storms and flooding that happened in June. Steve Ziebarth is the co-chair for the Long-term Recovery Team and says the meetings are being held to wrap up the search for those needing assistance.

Ziebarth says that residents can still apply for several state and community grants to help fund rebuilding and repairs. He says so far, the recovery efforts have come a long way.

The meetings will both be held Tuesday, September 2. Lincoln County residents can go to the Senior Citizens Center in Canton from 3-5. Union County residents are meeting at the Courthouse in Elk Point from 6:30 to 8:30 pm.
