Augusta Launches Self-Reporting Website for Property Damage Assessment Following Hurricane Helene

[AUGUSTA, GA, November 4, 2024] - The Augusta Fire/EMA Department, in collaboration with the Augusta-Richmond County Tax Assessor's Office, is conducting city-wide damage assessments after Hurricane Helene. Teams from both departments are assessing damage across the city. These assessments are not linked to financial assistance programs but are essential for meeting GEMA and FEMA requirements to document the extent of damage.

The self-reporting site is accessible through the City of Augusta's main page at www.augustaga.govor this link. We encourage those affected to use this tool to help streamline assessments and expedite documentation. Media interested in covering this topic may contact Chiquita Richardson at 706-825-1076.
