Happy National Volunteer Firefighters Day! Presque Isle Township Fire Department is grateful to our members who offer their time and talents, often late at night, early in the morning and on weekends, sacrificing work, family and leisure time to reliably respond to calls for emergency service in our community.

A temporary Disaster Recovery Center will be established at Presque Isle Township Hall, located at 12653 E. Grand Lake Rd., Presque Isle, MI 49777, from Thursday, August 6, 2026, through Monday, August 10, 2026, between 8:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m.

Teams from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) will be on-site to assist county residents with navigating the federal disaster assistance process.

All residents who sustained property damage or losses during the April flooding are encouraged to visit the center, apply online at www.disasterassistance.gov, or call 1-800-621-3362 for assistance.

Recovery resources may help supplement losses not fully covered by insurance, including FEMA grants for temporary housing, essential home repairs, and other critical disaster-related needs, as well as SBA loans for homeowners, renters, businesses, and private nonprofit organizations to repair or replace damaged real estate and personal property.

To expedite the application process, residents should bring the following items: photo identification, proof of occupancy or ownership, insurance policy information, a description of the damage, household income documentation, Social Security numbers, and direct deposit routing information.
