2019 CDBG-DR Flood Recovery
Disaster Recovery
Planning for the Long-Term Recovery
Through the assistance of a grant from the U.S. Economic Development Administration, IEDA partnered with a planning firm to create a long-term regional redevelopment strategy for flood impacted areas in Mills and Fremont counties. This comprehensive land use study assesses future land use, land management, infrastructure and flood control activities in the City of Pacific Junction, the City of Hamburg and the Interstate 29/Iowa Highway 2 interchange.
Program Guidelines

The State has established three primary funding programs with these funds, designed to meet remaining unmet needs in a thoughtful and resilient manner:
