Hays County Memorial Weekend Flood/Storms Damage Estimate Update

Hays County officials have given an update on the current estimated damage from the flood and storms that pounded this beautiful part of the Hill Country Memorial Day Weekend.
Below are the most recent (June 11, 2015) estimates of residences damaged by the Memorial Weekend storms and flood in Hays County.
Destroyed:  321
Major Damage: 322
Minor Damage: 376
Affected: 496
Inspected/not affected: 138
These damage estimates will continue to change as individuals register for federal disaster assistance and their residences are more thoroughly inspected.
The estimate for Public Assistance remains at $33 million currently. That figure may change as water recedes and areas of the county is more easily accessed for damage estimates. A separate estimate of damaged businesses is not yet available.
