Arlene Molczyk, Village Clerk for Comstock, watched in March as an ice jam on the nearby Middle Loop River caused the water to join a creek and flood the town damaging roads, the baseball field, park, water facilities and residences.

She has since applied for and was successful in procuring a $500 Disaster Relief Grant from the League Association of Risk Management (LARM) for help repairing the village's lift pump. Twenty-eight LARM member communities have applied for and received the grant to pay for storm related items such as sump pumps, electrical repair, road materials, barricades and trash removal.
