Press Release
Rexburg, ID, March 10, 2006:
The Rexburg City Council has been meeting with the City’s Insurance carrier to
discuss claims that have been filed by the residents of the Ricks-Palmer Subdivision, who have
suffered property damage as a result of the unfortunate flood that occurred last week.
The City’s preliminary investigation revealed that the City was not at fault for the property damage
that occurred; however, the City recognizes that a number of our citizens are suffering as a result of
the damage that occurred.
The City wants to do all that it possibly can to relieve the anguish of our citizens; therefore, while
the various parties involved are trying to sort out the responsible parties, the City intends to set up a
zero interest loan program, which will provide some of the funds necessary to assist the residents
of the Ricks-Palmer Subdivision for property restoration purposes.
