flag North Sioux City spent $4M to buy 16 flood-damaged homes to improve safety and stability.

flag North Sioux City, South Dakota, spent nearly $4 million from its general budget to buy 16 flood-damaged homes in 2024, offering residents the highest of three valuation methods. flag The city acted quickly after a major flood, bypassing delayed federal disaster funds to support affected homeowners and improve long-term community safety. flag Most owners accepted the offers, with a few declining. flag The purchases aim to stabilize land, prevent erosion, and support future reconstruction. flag A right of first refusal allows original owners to repurchase their lots within 20 years. flag Meanwhile, Iowa awarded $490,000 in grants to 16 communities for local development projects.
