A center set up to help victims of last

month’s tornado in Woodward is closing.

The U.S. Small Business Administration says its Disaster

Outreach Center will shut down Wednesday.

The agency opened the center to help residents and business

owners who were affected by the April 15 storm apply for

assistance. The storm killed six people and damaged 224 homes and

businesses.

SBA officials say disaster loans of up to $200,000 are available

to homeowners to repair or replace real estate that has been

damaged or destroyed. Homeowners and renters are eligible for up to

$40,000 to repair or replace personal property that has been

damaged or destroyed.

Businesses and private, nonprofit organizations may borrow up to

$2 million to replace or repair real estate, machinery and other

business assets.
