One of the major concerns regarding residential victims of the July tornado is trying to get houses shaped up before winter.
A 250-thousand dollar award from the Iowa Finance Authroity should help with quite a bit of that. Available for low income households, Mary Wymore of the Region 6 Housing Trust Fund says it will help get a lot of houses buttoned up before winter.
Applications are available at www.region6planning.org.
The funds are available for households under 80 percent of the county median family income.
