BARNSDALL, Okla. — It was the announcement so many people in the community wanted to hear.

“So with that being said, starting tomorrow FEMA will be here,” Barnsdall Mayor Johnny Kelley said.

On Thursday at a community meeting announced through an emergency notification text, Kelley gave the news.

This means people insured or uninsured may qualify to get financial assistance for housing, medical supplies or even home repairs.

It also includes the possibility of funding for car repairs or transportation as well as a list of other things people need help with.

Kelley said FEMA will set up at the county barn across from the Sinclair on 5th Street.

After the community address, FOX23 caught up with Landon Ramsey who said his home is destroyed and he has no insurance,

He is looking forward to speaking with FEMA.

“The Red Cross is helping my wife. They are doing 100% of taking us from one point to another point. My car is demolished and we are waiting for a rental car tomorrow afternoon,” Ramsey said.

Osage and Pontotoc Counties were added to the major disaster declaration for Oklahomans who sustained damage from severe weather that began on April 25.
