 On Sunday, July 31st, Governor Beshear made a trip to the Knot County Sports Plex to address the media and local officials regarding the flood relief effort. While community members continue to support each other in this time of need, Governor Beshear is also expressing his dedication towards the people of Kentucky. First, we understand and we love them. We care about them. We're going to do everything within our power to get them back up on their feet. And while it's going to take years to rebuild their lives, we were just talking about the location where we want to set up a one-stop health area here. If we had to come in and talk to a FEMA representative face-to-face, get your driver's license. If you have to file for an F1 to talk about your prescription refill, to talk about housing, to hopefully get all those services that so many of us take for granted. But when you've had everything wiped out, you shouldn't have to go to five or six offices. You're already in a difficult spot. It's not going to be easy. But we are tough people. We open our hearts and our homes to one another. We talked to folks in West Liberty, hit by a massive tornado ten and a half years ago. We do get back up on our feet. They will too because we're going to be standing right there next to them every day. Experienced heart specialist and sub-specialist collaborating for the benefit of your care.

Governor Bashir acknowledges the damage done to the roads and homes in the surrounding East Kentucky areas, but remains optimistic about the progress being made to rebuild and move on from the crisis. Well, when you look at these roadways, first this water can just totally eat up the road. Wipe it out and make it impassable. Then you get mudslides that are coming down with debris that separately have to be removed. I want to say the transportation cabinet, local officials, people out there with the back hose from their farms are doing an incredible job and a lot of areas are open that many would have thought would have taken a lot longer. We want to make sure that we're not keeping one family from getting what they need. And remember, it's their stories that are important, but it's mainly them that are important. We'll help you replace the stuff. I know that's hard if you just lost everything, but we're glad everybody that's here is here. Thank y'all. Reporting for Mountain Top News, I'm Nick Colum.
