Comments on: FEMA Has Provided $7.5 Million In Hurricane Sally Assistance To 1,716 Households So Far http://www.northescambia.com/2020/10/fema-has-provided-7-5-million-in-hurricane-sally-assistance-to-1716-households-so-far Local News for Molino, Bratt, McDavid, Century, Walnut Hill, Cantonment Thu, 09 Apr 2026 15:18:14 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Rasheed Jackson http://www.northescambia.com/2020/10/fema-has-provided-7-5-million-in-hurricane-sally-assistance-to-1716-households-so-far/comment-page-1#comment-430290 Rasheed Jackson Mon, 12 Oct 2020 12:43:46 +0000 http://www.northescambia.com/?p=419478#comment-430290 @ laughing Where are these posters you mentioned? I live in North Escambia County and haven't seen any of these posters. One thing I can tell you the evening of 9-16- 2020 and 9-16-2014, you could hear chain saws and tractors running as people started the process of digging out. In 2014 we didn't wait for the government to put tarps on our roofs. I personally helped three of my neighbor’s tarp their roofs, after we removed trees. In 2014, my neighbor and I, at first light, Got on our four wheelers and started going to the other neighbor's houses checking on them and what we found was they were out checking on their neighbors. We worked clearing roads so people who needed to could get out and emergency vehicles could get in. We are able to take care of ourselves most of the time but when disaster hits it doesn't pick and choose so yes if there is aide that is offered it is welcomed, after all most of us up here are tax paying citizens and those services are afforded to all. I am glad you are able to take care of property. 30 acres of trees and not one on your house? You are blessed. I too was able to take of my property without any assistance, during both storms. Being associated with a political party has nothing to do with this situation or the way people react but keep in mind one of the points on the new Progressive Democrats platform is the elimination of private property. So keep voting your rights away. It is your right to vote the way you want, that is until they take that away. Laughing at ignorance! @ laughing

North Escambia posters post Hurricane Sally: "Why don't we get bailed out by the federal government?" Lol. Y'all are "self-sufficient" until the money train rolls in. We've got 30 acres of downed trees and blocked farm roads, and we aren't asking for a bail out from anybody. We'll take care of our property. Oh, and we are Democrats. Y'all be safe and best wishes.

Don't wait until they ask for it because they won't. Otherwise they are doing awesome... As I await my appeal while Im forced to stay at my structurally unsound home.

When you "register," you are actually filing a claim - even if you don't finish the registration process. If you say you have insurance, the claim will be denied and you'll have 60 days to appeal. I made this mistake. I have costs that insurance won't cover, but won't get a decision from the insurance company within 60 days since they won't even return my calls.

That would mean each claim could be $4,370. Makes total sense. Ok, I’m not awake yet. That would mean each claim could be $4,370. Makes total sense.
