And many people are complaining regarding some real issues, or haven't you read about them?

Tree problems and roof issues . . . Roof issues where people have leaks and can't get anyone to do anything for weeks.

Perhaps those of you who were lucky, should just remain silent.

Having our home flattened or flooded is the reason I will never live near the ocean or any body of water for that matter. It is very risky to have that gorgeous ocean view.

Have been reading about them...but they need to call someone that can help...like their insurance company. Right now there are greater needs, sadly, though when we have an issue, no matter what, it can seem horrific. All I'm hoping for is for everyone to put things in perspective. They are alive, they have shelter, some have power, some don't. Many of us who grew up dealing with hurricanes know and recognize that clean up and utility restoration takes time. We have absolutely no idea what is damaged, where and when crews can get in to remedy the situation. Alas, outages are triaged I believe....and the greater need is handled first. Probably the same for roof leaks. Will pray for no rain....quite a change from what we normally might have to do. It can't hurt and it might help.

And that's my opinion....

I wonder how hardened the infrastructure is that a weak Cat1 cause so much havoc.
I did not realize that the purpose of the golf courses was to protect the houses....
So the golf courses are secondary?
Then should property owners who are protected by golf courses have a higher CDD amenity fee?
Or do all properties in TV drain into the courses?
I've only been a resident here 3 weeks and only played golf twice...
