Spokane County officials are asking businesses, renters and homeowners to report any property damage caused by late-winter flooding.

They’re trying to determine whether the county meets cost thresholds to apply for state and federal emergency funding.

Gerry Bozarth, a disaster recovery specialist with Greater Spokane Emergency Management, said the county must show roughly $1.7 million in damage to public infrastructure to get funding from the Federal Emergency Management Agency.

County officials previously estimated that flooding from melting snow and rain had caused nearly $1 million in damage to roads, ditches and culverts.

Separate application processes could net disaster funding for individuals and businesses, including low-interest loans from the U.S. Small Business Administration, Bozarth said.

“That’s a possibility, but at the moment there’s absolutely no guarantee that we would qualify for that kind of assistance,” he said. “That’s why we’re gathering this information right now.”
