Hurricane Debby damages - 
Residents and Business
 
Using this easy tool below will allow us to gather damages quickly and efficiently and help guide what necessary next steps there may be for business and home owners. Please push the QR code and link below out to as many residents that you can and post on social media. This will give us a list for the damage assessment team to go door to door. Home owners really need to file a claim with their home owners insurance and get that denial letter. That will help them with funds from FEMA.
