- GMGene MclaurinSep 14, 20251.0My sister and I live in this community we are both disabled and have a limited income. We are finally getting our home repaired it took almost 3yrs for FEMA to help us I appealed them many times. I guess they got tired of my appeals. We are getting repairs done a little at a time. They are putting people out for not getting their homes repaired. My sister and I fill that (Bay Indie’s) is targeting us they keep putting notes on our door this and this needs repaired.. If they put us out we have nowhere to go. Yesterday the maintenance manager came to put the second notice on my door and told the lead contractor make sure the owner gets this notice and told him our business if they get a third notice they have 7 days to get out I got so mad I was shaking I held my cool, I didn’t want to stir up a HORNETS NEST that was very unprofessional.
