In a statement released by Governor O’Malley and as reported in the Gazette, 21 counties and Baltimore City have been designated for federal aid resulting from the snow storms in February. This designation does not result in the immediate distribution of funds, but a process of totaling reimbursable expenses with local and state emergency response agencies.
In addition, all 24 jurisdictions are eligible to seek grants for mitigating long-term risks to life and property from the storms.
