Road Home Questions
April 14th, 2007
I get a lot of questions about the Road Home program in email. I ask that you post your question in the comment section of this post, so I can forward a link to the people who can answer your question, because it probably won’t be me. It will most likely be one the the better informed members of CHAT. Furthermore, I ask that when a person answers a question, they do so in the comments section of this post, so that we can all find the answer in the future.
Update: We are now creating an unofficial Road Home FAQ. You can help develop the FAQ, you can even edit it yourself.

Road Home,
To whom it may concern
I recently purchased two 50’ lots on Irish Bayou at 2761 Ridgeway Blvd. 70129 (US 11). I intend to build a house on the site and live there. I did assume a covenant with Road Home from the former owner. I am in the process of building a bulkhead and filling the lots. What I want to know is: Officially, what is the height of elevation above normal tide do I have to build? And is there any Road Home funds to help pay for the much increased elevation? Is there any other information I may need? My cell is: 504-401-3093, my home phone is 504-831-2732. rrhoppy26@yahoo.com My Name is Ralph R. Hopkins, My home address is: 635 LaBarre Drive Metairie, La. 70001

Dee,
The closing went fine. It took about 15 minutes. Good Luck!! I went to closing on Wednesday and chose the wire option. I will let you know how many days it takes to hit my account.
Hi Tynia, I received my call on yesterday. We go to closing on Thursday.
Cool. I had to go to the closing office on South Peters and it was very quick and organized.
well, i’m happy for you out there,but how do you check your on file’status’,or know how far they are on your flies? we close in march,but nothing about our elevation grants,not one phone call are letters from anybody.they let us sign our elevation papers at closing,but a that time they weren’t giving it out yet. where’s our grant money going? good luck too all..
NEW ORLEANS — Federal officials said on Sunday that Louisiana is moving too slow to distribute elevation grants to hurricane-affected homeowners and they say the pace of the distributions could end up costing the state millions.
The funding, which was awarded after Hurricane Katrina, will allow some homeowners to raise the elevation of their homes.
About $1 billion in Road Home elevation grants finally started flowing to homeowners in the last two weeks. But the state hasn’t begun to tap the money from another elevation program, which is $750 million.
i hope this will make some louisiana people happy this was in the news today..wsdu.com
I am trying to see when I will be getting my elevation grant. I did notice a few new documents has been added to my application when I check it online. Does any one know what this is 06HH030214_ElevationIncentiveForm_Review Project.pdf. This was added on 11/04/08.
