Diligence pays off. Mike Keltner, Adair County Emergency Management Director, and Melinda Quinn, County Treasurer, were definitely relieved after the last payment from FEMA arrived this month. Though applied for in 2010, Keltner had worked on the original request for $97,000 since 2015. After multiple appeals he was able to secure the funds needed to reimburse the fiscal court which paid for the rebuilding of Purdy-Sano Bridge which suffered major structural damage during flooding almost nine years ago. - TK Comments | Permalink
