At the request of constituents, Representative Cliff Bentz (R-Ontario) has asked the Oregon Insurance Division, Oregon Construction Contractors Board, and State and Local Building Codes Staff to identify and explain sources of information and assistance available to farmers, ranchers, businesses, and individuals damaged by snow storms in Malheur County.

A town hall meeting, hosted by these agencies, will discuss options for rebuilding, insurance coverage and claims, and building construction licensing:

The Department of Environmental Quality will also have handout information available on safe disposal of asbestos and building materials, as well as landfill locations and availability.

Rep. Bentz said, “I encourage everyone who is looking for information on rebuilding and insurance claims to attend this town hall meeting. These state agencies can help get necessary information into your hands so that we can quickly rebuild our community.”
