I’m spending the day preparing Wills and other estate planning documents for local first responders through LSBA’s Wills for Heroes project.
I had the pleasure of helping out my friend and Hammond Police Department’s Sergeant Jennifer Payne.

This morning I presented information on how to hand write a Will to Hammond’s AARP club. We also discussed other documents such as powers of attorney and the probate process.

Here’s the flood study update:
The objective is to reduce BFE (base flood elevations) by updating topography and pointing out revisions to the FEMA map. So far they have identified cross drains at the RR and several canals not included in the map - this could affect the BFE and if FEMA accepts changes, lower BFE. That means lower insurance bills and (importantly) house not having to be built so far off the ground.
What’s next? They are re-requesting some info from FEMA that wasn’t sent to confirm some findings. Then we will be presented with a strategy for requesting BFE reduction.
Timeline: after getting the info from FEMA, 30 days for the strategy presentation. Doing the work and submitting a LOMAR and getting a response could take 2 years. (I’m not really sure of the timeline because it went back and forth a bit).
Check out the video of the hearing on the city’s website. I’ll update this post when it’s update.

Ryan and I are proud to be a sponsor for the Hospice Gala this year.
Hospice is near and dear to my heart as the service was a Godsend in my grandmother’s final days. Many of my clients have had family members on hospice.
