2021 Marshall Fire and Straight-Line Winds Event
The Colorado Department of Local Affairs (DOLA) is in receipt of Community Development Block Grant Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR) funds from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). DOLA will use these funds to carry out activities to address the long-term recovery needs resulting from the DR-4634 Marshall Fire and Straight Line Winds such as the reconstruction and rehabilitation of residential structures; the implementation of mitigation measures for future disasters; assistance with economic recovery for households and businesses impacted by the disaster; and reconstruction of infrastructure impacted by the disaster.
