The community of Kincaid continues to recover from the flooding that occurred after Christmas and one local official has provided an update on the recovery process. Mayor David Oller told Regional Radio News it’s been a slow recovery and he’s hoping they can get materials for residents whose homes were impacted.

Oller says they just received a bill of around $6300 after using dumpsters for materials and submitted it to the Illinois Emergency Management Agency (IEMA) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).

Oller hopes the Federal Government can step in and help the residents.

Oller further stated the Midland Ministerial Alliance is still accepting monetary donations to help the flood victims.
