North Carolina lawmakers rebuked on Wednesday the state’s disaster recovery director with one calling for her removal for the agency’s slow progress amid years-long delays that have left some low-income homeowners in temporary lodging for up to six years after hurricanes Matthew and Florence displaced them.
North Carolina lawmakers heard once again on Wednesday from officials on hurricane recovery efforts for those who lost their homes due to Hurricanes Matthew and Florence. Unfortunately, much of the same testimony was given in the almost four-hour hurricane response and recovery subcommittee meeting as it was in September. The consensus: responsibility is said to be taken. Still, not much progress is being made for those who have had no place to call home, for some as far back as 2016.
