Got letter either pay more-or will cover less. Had paid for it in April. Didn't get letter-mailman could not go across road-was flooded. Not deep. So I went to insurance lady. Government sets rate. And said they will raise rates in storm damage areas. All $$$$ spent on wars. Could have levees and storm shelters I paid more-but firing e-mail to my Congress man.
I'm sorry. They always find a way to stick it to ya. The news reported they are expecting a busy hurricane season for us in Florida. Shortly after the news also reported a cut in future storm aid for us too. So basically they scare you then and let you know your on your own basically.
Well my oldest SON was in mid east over 20 times In Us Air Force. He was with Supplies .warned me plywood would go up. Before we added on house. 6 weeks later -was up.
KK--I have heard about these increases coming down the pike for properties with Federal flood insurance. Bummmer.
Bummer for sure. There is no such thing as disaster proof places to live on this planet. [though some people are not bright and build in places like beachfronts] But ordinary farmland ought to be covered.
One reason koszta flooded ..Took out small bridges out-put 2 tubes. Everyone told was wrong-needed 3. Thousand of acres of crops under water..
Bummer, it seems we need farmland not bog land. Insurance would assure farmers of help in bad years. Jerry
I had no damage .Only thing in 40 years When sump-pumped burned out $90 motor to wood-burning furnace.But after helping friends and DH aunt-gut their lovely home. City of Cedar Rapids told people to PREPARE for 2-3 feet. Was 12 feet. We have moved breaker box-furnace up stairs.
