Mayor made announcement early on Election Day

Morris County has been included in the Federal Emergency Management Agency declaration for Individual Assistance, according to a Tuesday morning statement from Mayor James Barberio.

Residents who have suffered severe losses through Superstorm Sandy should either call FEMA at 800-621-3362 or go to the agency website at www.DisasterAssistance.gov.

It does not appear that the website has been updated yet to include Morris County, but Mayor Barberio recommended taking a look at the site to expedite the application process once the site is updated and Parsippany residents can begin to apply.
