Landscaping that was not covered by FEMA nor insurance, because it was declared flooding, for which no insurance was allegedly needed because this was supposed to be a "no flood" zone that didn't need flood insurance? No help from FEMA, the Northwest Florida Water Management for the Escambia River tributaries either. Where does the $$ go, if not for those important items???

Most of these properties were damaged before the flood due to bank neglect, but they are requesting the money anyway.

The roadside pickup is NOT finished and Escambia County residents are in a desperate need of assistance. Politics and insurance companies want to put this to bed.

Why has this not been brought up before now? Florida has had 3 governors since 2004: Jeb Bush Charlie Crist Rick Scott Which of them should have first seen that the $4,000,000 was sent, without hesitation, to Escambia County? Why, after nearly 10 years since Hurricane Ivan, would the State of Florida continue to hold $4 Million that is intended for Escambia Co.?

Why has this not been brought up before now?

Florida has had 3 governors since 2004:

Which of them should have first seen that the $4,000,000 was sent, without hesitation, to Escambia County?
