msa.md.gov

Somerset County residents will get a chance to find out what help they might get if they suffered damage from Hurricane Sandy now that the federal and state agencies have departed.

A meeting of the Somerset County Long Term Recovery Committee will host a town hall meeting at Crisfield High School Wednesday night at 6 pm to outline what the committee could offer.

John Phoebus, chair of the group, said help would be available to anyone who applied for help from the Federal Emergency Management Agency.

FEMA extended the deadline on Monday for getting help from the federal government through to February 26th.
