“Our community never should have been developed. It’s hundreds and hundreds of houses. Now we are proof that we need better regulations.” New York Times reporters spent months documenting members of the community as they tried to rebuild their lives.http://nyti.ms/2FKr8AI

Unfortunately, I wouldn't hold my breath with this administration. Unless Mr. Trump comes to throw paper towels at you.....

I'm so sorry you had to go through such an awful storm, as well as an awful display by our childish President.

Intentional flooding seems bad, and I am asking why would government do that?
-
Poor writing by
@NYTimes. It wasn't that the Federal govt. chose to flood a particular neighborhood, the flood water had to be released to protect the integrity of a dam. The homes were in an area where no development should have been allowed. -
Correct. After Harvey, evident Houston needs to create flood-release channels and bayou dragging to minimize flood damage to several neighborhoods built in risky areas by greedy developers with Government support
-
I am no expert, but having grown up in Miami, Florida, canals were used to drain land and manage excess water from rains and hurricanes. Wonder if bayous are just not enough.

What’s this? Deep red Texas asking for federal govt help? I thought they were always against this? Example hurricane sandy.

Great article, BUT Cinco Ranch was just ONE of the many communities within the Flood Pool that were affected. The map shows the affected area as Cinco Ranch, which is misleading. What about Grand Lakes, Kelliwood, Highland Trails, Ricefield Village, and Willow Fork?
