Relocation Assistance Program

This program provides relocation assistance to Cedar Rapids businesses located in the NW 1st Corridor who are now on the “wetside” of the proposed levee. These businesses repaired their businesses prior to their knowledge of the levee location and will be reimbursed for the gap between the insurance proceeds/pre-flood property value and the actual cost to repair their business post disaster. In-home businesses are not eligible for the funds.
