New Jersey continues to deal with the rebuilding of homes along the Atlantic Coast as a result of Hurricane Sandy, the Oct. 2012 storm which killed 117 people in the U. S., leveled thousands of homes and left a path of destruction costing $65 billion. The Christie administration has set another information session for June 15 in Toms River to provide personal assistance for storm-affected homeowners participating in the Low and Moderate Income (LMI) Homeowners Rebuilding program.
Over 1,000 applicants attended the last such meeting, according to thesandpaper.villagesoup, indicating there remains much work yet to be done nearly three years out. The N.J. Department of Community Affairs will have staff on hand to answer questions about all aspects of the program. A portion of funding has been specifically set aside for owners of manufactured homes who seek to rehabilitate, reconstruct and elevate their homes, as long as it was their primary residence. MHProNews understands the applicants must meet the limited financial means requirements. ##
