This notice encourages residents of Fairbanks North Star Borough, City of Fairbanks, and City of North Pole who experienced property damage from the November 12, 2013 winter storm to report their damages. Reporting damages is the first step to determine if the community is eligible for state or federal disaster assistance to help cover uninsured costs. Residents are asked to contact the Fairbanks North Star Borough Division of Emergency Management as soon as possible to submit a preliminary damage report, which will be compiled and sent to the State of Alaska to evaluate if individual assistance programs will be made available. In the meantime, residents should carefully document damages through photos or video and save all estimates and receipts.
