York County fails to qualify for low-interest loans for storm damage repairs
WGAL ^ | 25 August A.D. 2023 | Staff

York County didn't qualify to receive low-interest loans to help residents and businesses impacted by severe weather earlier this month.

The announcement came after a federal survey team from the U.S. Small Business Administration visited the county this week to assess damage caused by tornadoes and severe storms on Aug. 7.

The SBA didn't say why York County didn't qualify for assistance.

The National Weather Service confirmed two tornadoes touched down – one in Manheim Township and the other in East Hopewell Township.

Thousands of people were without power for up to a week.

Some families said it will take months before repairs are complete on their homes.

Pennsylvania Ping!

Please ping me with articles of interest.

FReepmail me to be added to the list.

York County voted overwhelmingly for DJT in 2016 and 2020.
The 2016 vote (along with Lancaster's) cinched the White House.

Two tornadoes? I knew about one, but hadn’t heard about a second funnel.

It was the same storm cell...touched down first in Manheim near N. Church St & Lineboro Rd; then partially retreated but uprooted some huge trees just north of Shrewsbury (a big sycamore along the Trail and a huge oak just north of the Home Depot) before touching down again near the old GC & N.

Same cell also produced a touchdown in Lanco.

I was just down to see it w/ Sherry on Tuesday — didn’t see any damage along the way — and what a gutwrenching, heartbreaking
disaster wreck the place is... sorry we stopped in.

“The crown jewel of North Hopewell Township” (as Larry Bailets would say) has lost its luster.

There are insufficient words.

But the Lambs Ear I bought toward the end is still flourishing and migrating.

York is a predominantly a white Republican county. There's the explanation.

YUP.

As full of “deplorables” as East Palestine, Ohio.

Homeowners insurance must not be available in PA.

I’m getting sick and tired of paying twice for other peoples bad choices. I pay my insurance premium and also pay taxes (way more than a ‘fair share’).

Government only rewards poor choices and bad behavior.

It’s what they do.

How is Larry doing? Haven’t seen him or Barry, in many years.
