We have an important update for the residents of Cambridge City following the devastating flooding that has impacted our community.

President Donald Trump has signed a federal disaster declaration making several communities across Indiana eligible for federal disaster assistance. Wayne County, including Cambridge City, is included in that declaration.

This means residents who suffered damage from the flooding may now apply for assistance through FEMA.

𝗛𝗢𝗪 𝗧𝗢 𝗔𝗣𝗣𝗟𝗬

You can begin your application online at:

https://www.disasterassistance.gov

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗹𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝗢𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝟮𝟱, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲.

The FEMA website also contains a variety of frequently asked questions and additional information about the assistance process.

Before beginning your application, we recommend gathering the following information if you have it available:

• 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗼𝗳 𝗼𝗳 𝗢𝗰𝗰𝘂𝗽𝗮𝗻𝗰𝘆: A lease, utility bill, deed, or other documentation showing the damaged property is your primary residence.

• 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗜𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Your insurance policy number and any settlement or denial letters from your insurance provider.

• 𝗘𝘃𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗗𝗮𝗺𝗮𝗴𝗲: Clear photographs or videos documenting structural damage and destroyed personal property.

• 𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗱𝘀: Itemized receipts for emergency repairs, temporary lodging, cleanup materials, or other eligible expenses you have already paid.

𝗡𝗘𝗘𝗗 𝗛𝗘𝗟𝗣 𝗔𝗣𝗣𝗟𝗬𝗜𝗡𝗚?

If you need assistance completing your FEMA application, you can call the FEMA Helpline at:

1-800-621-3362

The helpline is currently available 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., 7 days a week.

The Town of Cambridge City is also working to organize an assistance center for residents who do not have access to the internet, a computer, or reliable phone service and need help completing their application. We will share the location and times of the resource once it becomes available.

𝗪𝗘 𝗔𝗥𝗘 𝗟𝗘𝗔𝗥𝗡𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗪𝗜𝗧𝗛 𝗬𝗢𝗨

We want to be upfront with everyone. We do not know exactly how this process will pan out.

This is an unprecedented situation for our community, and we are learning many parts of this process alongside you. We know there are a lot of questions, and in many cases, we may not have all of the answers yet.

We ask for your patience.

What we can promise is that we are doing everything we can to position Cambridge City and our residents for the best possible outcome. We will continue gathering information, working with state and federal partners, and sharing updates as they become available.

𝗜𝗡𝗗𝗜𝗔𝗡𝗔 𝗗𝗜𝗦𝗔𝗦𝗧𝗘𝗥 𝗜𝗡𝗙𝗢𝗥𝗠𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡

The Indiana Department of Homeland Security has established an information hub with additional information regarding the August 2026 disaster:

𝗣𝗟𝗘𝗔𝗦𝗘 𝗥𝗘𝗣𝗢𝗥𝗧 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗗𝗔𝗠𝗔𝗚𝗘

If you have not already done so, please also report your flood damage by calling 211.

Even if you are unsure whether you will qualify for assistance, reporting your damage is an important part of the recovery process.

Cambridge City will continue to keep you informed as we receive more information.

Please share this post but also reach out to those who may not have access to social media.

Cambridge City Flood Update
8/25/2026

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐬 𝐨𝐧 𝐚 𝐁𝐨𝐢𝐥 𝐖𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐀𝐝𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐫𝐲. Water for consumption must be boiled first. We previously had been unable to supply a water sample that passes inspection. After another round of sanitizing the flooded pumps, we just received word this morning the well test passed. 𝐖𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐛𝐞 𝐟𝐥𝐮𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐚𝐭 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐧𝐞𝐱𝐭 𝟒𝟖 𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬. 𝐃𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐦𝐚𝐲 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐰𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐢𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞. The next big hurdle will be passing the water test that gets sent out on Thursday. The boil advisory does NOT apply to those customers on the system that supplies the industrial park and businesses near the interstate, as they are separate systems.

Debris cleanup continues in town, with dumpsters beside the town garage open from 7 AM
till 4 PM. Construction debris can still also be taken to the Hagerstown transfer station during their hours. There has been a lot of headway made on clearing debris from the curbsides. We should be coming to the end of the line on our dumpster service once all of the curbside debris is cleared. Currently we expect to be open through this coming Saturday (8/29). We will review again later this week.

NOTE - ANTHING ON THE CURBSIDE WILL BE REMOVED AS DEBRIS UNLESS SIGNAGE IS IN PLACE TO LEAVE AS-IS.

The town is currently working with a structural engineer to check homes and businesses for structural damage that would be considered excessive. This should be used as a guideline for making decisions regarding your home and business. It is NOT an official condemnation or approval of the condition of your home. We have prioritized some homes that we are aware may be badly damaged. If you feel your home may be structurally unsound, please call the city building number (765-478-3522) and leave a message with your address and we can add it to the list.

Cambridge City Christian Church Aid station - Reminder that a number of supplies, including food, clothes, cleaning supplies, etc. are available for FLOOD VICTIMS ONLY at the Cambridge City Christian Church. Bottled water and some other supplies are also available for residents on the Boil Advisory. PLEASE do not take advantage of all the supplies at the church unless you are in need due to flood damage.

Cambridge City Water Update

As we continue to recover from the flooding, we want to provide an update on the current boil order.

Before the boil order can be lifted, the water supply must pass a series of required tests. At this time, we have not yet passed one of the required tests at the well. The well is currently being resanitized, and additional testing will be required afterward.

Based on the current timeline, it will likely be at least the end of next week (August 28, 2026) before the boil order can be lifted.

We understand the inconvenience this causes and appreciate everyone’s patience and cooperation as we work to ensure the water is safe before the order is lifted.

We will continue to provide updates as soon as more information becomes available.
