LITTLE FALLS, MN—North Central Minnesota was hit with severe thunderstorms Sunday evening with strong winds and heavy rains causing damage to a yet-unknown number of homes and businesses in Morrison and Todd Counties. Assistant Majority Leader Rep. Ron Kresha, R-Little Falls, issued the following statement regarding the storms, and the assistance his office is prepared to help as citizens and businesses begin the cleanup process:
“As we begin to clean up from the devastation, I want you to know my office is ready to assist in any way we can. In the coming days, we will have a better idea of what resources are or will be available to victims of storm damage. Please don’t hesitate to contact me at rep.ron.kresha@house.mn or by calling 651-296-4247. I might not be able to answer your question right away, but will work with our state and county officials to get you the information you need to make the cleanup process a little easier. I plan to send out additional information in the coming days and post it on my House website at www.house.mn/09B as more information becomes available.
“I know that our community and state will do what we always do after these types of storms—help our friends and neighbors with cleanup efforts, and do what we can to support each other as we get back on our feet. A storm can batter our houses and flood our basements, but it can’t break our community and the bonds that hold it together.”
