Staff with the Federal Emergency Management Agency is looking for multi-family rental housing units which can be fixed up and made available as temporary housing.

Nate Custer said FEMA’s Multi-Family Lease and Repair Request for Information deadline has been extended to November 4th. FEMA is seeking owners with properties previously used as multi-family housing, with three or more units, that with financial assistance, could be quickly repaired to local, state and federal codes and standards, and offered as temporary housing for FEMA applicants.

Custer said information from those who respond will be used to determine which properties meet MLR criteria and provide the most-timely, cost effective means of providing direct assistance to eligible disaster survivors.
