FEMA cuts first Macroburst reimbursement check to Brookfield

FEMA has sent the first reimbursement check to Brookfield for last May's macroburst clean up.  The Federal Emergency Management Agency has been reviewing the town's claim for the last few months.  Brookfield sought $2 million, but FEMA will only pay about 75-percent of that, or $1.5 million.  First Selectman Steve Dunn told the Newstimes that the first check was for $7,000.  He says FEMA and the state must go through additional vetting before Brookfield can receive any more reimbursement.  Brookfield spent about $1.7 million after the 2018 weather which took down trees and knocked out power across a swath of Connecticut.
