[StBernard] Future of Lexington Subdivision

[Westley Annis]

Phillis, et al.
 
There is no decision made about any specific area yet.  The current
discussions are focusing on the areas that are repeatedly damaged by
flooding and most vulnerable to storm conditions.  The corridor along the 40
arpent canal is being discussed but no boundaries or areas have been decided
on.  The other part of this discussion is the funding source for any area
identified- people will not just lose their property- they will be
compensated for it. (mitigation)
 
If you have any other questions, please feel free to write.
 
Good luck and God Bless,
Craig

I am reading that Lexington subdivision could possibly be a no build area,
is this true or is one of the many rumors? I don't think I am returning to
St. Bernard but what about those people in the subdivision who do plan to
return and have already began gutting and cleaning their land? Not to
mention, Lexington wasn't in the buyout area covered in the article so what
happens to our land that is still ours if they do decide to go with the no
build or rebuild? Do we just lose our land that we could have had the option
to sell years from now? What will be put there if we can not reclaim our
property, an interstate?
 
Could you please check into this for me and I am sure many others are asking
the same questions.
 
Thanks
Phillis
