Sloppy record keeping continues to plague counties prone to flooding.
Colorado residents who have built in flood and fire-prone areas are also seeing heat from insurance companies.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency plans to put Union County on probationary status with the National Flood Insurance Program starting in mid-May unless it addresses what it calls program deficiencies. FEMA officials say the county does not have adequate record keeping and has failed to manage development in the floodplain. FEMA says inspectors have found homes with basements on the floodplain. Basements are banned in floodplain areas. [Associated Press]Litigation costs to federal agencies are straining budgets especially from frivolous lawsuits like those brought by Dakota Dunes resident and state senator, Republican Dan Lederman.
