Pam Fosse, Jamestown Civic Center director, said: "We’re hoping it will bring back a sense of normalcy to the city. It’s not difficult to drive down the street and realize the situation we’re in … We’re hoping to give people a break and take their minds off the situation."

It is unknown where the money to pay for the cleaning will come from, but the Civic Center hopes the majority will be funded by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the story added.
