Governor Culver has announced the “Jumpstart
Iowa” Disaster Recovery Initiative, which will provide
financial assistance to small business owners and homeowners who
suffered damage due to the severe weather in the spring and summer of
this year. It includes up to $10,000 to homeowners and up to $5,000 to
small business owners for the purchase of qualifying energy efficient
equipment. Money for energy efficient equipment is being provided by the
Iowa Power Fund. Funds will be distributed by the Councils of Government
(COGs) beginning October 1, 2008. While this will not directly impact
municipal utilities, they will still have some responsibilities.
