Kentucky counties eligible for small business loans

FRANKFORT ­– In response to Gov. Fletcher’s request last week for disaster support in the wake of last September’s flooding, the Small Business Administration announced yesterday that approval has been granted and reduced interest rate loans may be available to those homeowners and businesses that were damaged or destroyed.

“I am pleased that the Small Business Administration is able to assist those whose homes have been damaged or those whose livelihood has been adversely affected,” said Gov. Fletcher. “These loans are essential in helping Kentuckians rebuild and preserve the quality of life they have worked so hard to obtain.”

Eligible counties include: Anderson, Bourbon, Breckinridge, Bullitt, Clark, Fayette, Franklin, Fulton, Grayson, Hardin, Hart, Hickman, Jefferson, Jessamine, Larue, Madison, Meade, Mercer, Nelson, Scott and Woodford counties.

Anyone uncertain if they may be eligible for SBA assistance are encouraged to contact their local emergency director or visit www.SBA.gov.

Please watch your local newspapers and community notices for additional information provided by SBA officials.
