Disaster areas take a long time to rebuild...just ask residents of Florida...
AI Overview
The cleanup and rebuilding process after a major hurricane in Florida can take years, with some areas still recovering decades later. While emergency aid and media attention often fade within weeks, research suggests long-term recovery efforts can span six to ten years, with the primary recovery period (when most repairs are made) averaging around 14 months across different storms. The severity of the damage, the size of the affected area, and the resources available all influence the timeline.
Factors Influencing Recovery Time:
Severity of Damage:
Extensive damage to infrastructure, homes, and businesses will naturally take longer to repair than minor damage.
Location and Size of Affected Area:
Larger areas with more significant damage will require more time and resources to rebuild.
Availability of Resources:
Access to funding, building materials, labor, and skilled professionals impacts the pace of recovery.
Community Resilience:
The ability of the community to organize, mobilize resources, and support each other also plays a crucial role.
Examples:
Hurricane Andrew (1992):
.
While about 70% of damaged or destroyed homes in Homestead were repaired within two years, it took several years for the area to fully recover.
Hurricane Katrina (2005):
.
Cleanup took about a year, and while some rebuilding started within weeks, full recovery took much longer, with some areas still struggling years later, according to a retired EPA analyst.
Recent Hurricanes in Florida's Big Bend:
.
Some areas have faced multiple hurricanes in a short period, making recovery efforts particularly challenging, with some residents facing the prospect of rebuilding multiple times.
Long-Term Recovery:
It's important to remember that even after the initial rebuilding phase, communities may face long-term challenges such as increased insurance costs, displacement of residents, and changes in the local economy and social fabric.

Let’s say Trump brings the DC crime rate to almost zero for a month. It’s a
sign that Republicans know how to govern and Democrats do not. The same thing goes on in California. You get good governance when you elect Republicans. When you elect Democrats, you get empty lots a year after the fire.
One of the secrets to Trump’s success is people elect him because he is good at governance. He gets things done.

been saying that for 50 years.
The proof is always in the pudding.
Dem incompetence cannot be unlearned.
While I would love for the recovery to be lightning fast…
there are many challenges. 1. Debris removal has just been completed. It’s hard for outsiders, including me, to fathom the sheer magnitude of this part of the recovery. 2. Permits are now being approved quickly, but they couldn’t be processed until debris was removed from both commercial and residential properties. 3. Homes are starting to be rebuilt and financial assistance is starting to flow. This is a good thing.
The challenges: It took a long time to remove debris. Longer than it should have taken. While financial assistance is coming in, it also took longer than it should have. I blame both state and federal governments for this. Insurance companies are still fighting with business and homeowners for funds. The blame for this falls squarely on the greedy insurance companies.
There’s a lot more that could be said, but these are the main points. FYI, ive received this info from a colleague of mine up in LA that has been tasked with helping the rebuild efforts.
Do you know? Was the debris removal under government contract?

Of course it was along with coordination…
between private companies, insurance carriers (for payment), e al…
It wasn’t and isn’t a straight forward process. The government, both state and federal, have to ensure safe removal and disposal of debris.
Calm down, just making sure. I asked cuz, I am working for the government for first time in
Construction, wow… what a shit show.
It’s slow to get companies under contract.
It’s slow to get questions answered RFI’s.
It’s slow to get subs paid.
If a sub is bad or non compliant can take an act of hod to fire them especially in California/New York.
That’s just a few items.
Good luck and please know that I wasn’t trying to be terse with you…
Just trying to relay info from someone who’s working in the LA recovery project.
Is this a rMSM website?

Anyone who sees what happened there and wants more Democratic gubment, uh, yeah. F off.
You hate America and are likely a brainwashed toad.
