We can't really write (policies) in the area anymore because of the sinkholes.

We're at a critical, fragile stage here. (If) we have another hurricane season like we've had, who knows what's going to happen?

Mitigation is the only way we can dramatically reduce the losses. Clearly the newer-built houses are standing up so much better, but most of the housing stock is pre-modern construction.

It's all about following the views, and daylight.

This makes perfect sense because often the greatest damage to a home occurs when windows and garage doors fail.

This definition omits many other areas of the state where wind forces are considerable higher, exposing home and residents in such areas to great risk.
