Thank you for your quick response - i understand that the local aspect but when they fail or frustrate perhaps you can help by stepping in with the Governor and ask what may help - Folks are scared and many are getting approached to sell for cash as they wait - it aways appears that some communities are left in the lurch - a State that has Hurricanes should have a more organised and quicker process for folks as you may or may not know there is a fear that it is being done on purpose/ years ago in Venice California it was brought to my attention by some who were involved with city hall that certain decisions were made to delay response to bring land values down so they can be bought up by carpetbaggers
