Bowling Green, KY – Warren County has joined the list of Kentucky
Counties filing for disaster relief as a result of
last week's storms and high winds. The county is
filing a 1.2 million dollar request after the storms

numerous trees and power lines.
The request includes 94 thousand dollars for the
Richardsville Elementary School, to replace a roof
that was torn off. The request also includes 80 thousand
dollars for damage at the campus of Western Kentucky
University.
The utility companies that cover Warren county, Warren
R-E-C-C and Bowling Green Municipal Utilities, estimated
about 500 thousand dollars in expenses apiece.
