FEMA Denies St. Louis Most Tornado Demolition Funds: City Faces Budget Crunch

St. Louis, still reeling from an EF-three tornado that struck in May, has been denied most reimbursement for building demolitions by FEMA. The city aims to tear down 1,000 dangerous structures, but FEMAs rules limit funding to a mere 20% of demolitions. With state funds and its own budget, the city faces a budget crunch, as every uncovered dollar means less for other recovery work. Residents grow frustrated with the slow pace, and city leaders remain committed to starting larger-scale demolitions this month.
