FRANKFORT, Ky. — Gov. Andy Beshear, D-Ky., announced $612,000 in awards from Kentucky’s State Aid Funding for Emergencies program will go toward funding continued recovery efforts in eastern Kentucky from devastating storms and floods.

“We made a promise to our fellow Kentuckians that we would rebuild eastern Kentucky stronger and more resilient, and these funds are another step toward accomplishing that goal,” Beshear said. “We will be with these communities for as long as it takes to recover, helping families build their 'New Kentucky Home' where they can feel safe again.”

The money will help local governments and partners address critical infrastructure needs, strained fiscal conditions and ongoing recovery efforts, the news release said.
