I have not posted on the Louisa County Residents page as they banned me for telling residents the truth. Guess they forgot about this page.

Timber Oaks is for sale! A measly $2.1M will buy you waterfront property just like mine in the Town of Louisa.

Duane Adams told me private flood insurance is available. The fact that it is not affordable is of no consequence to someone that lives in a waterfront Lake Anna home. HE has private flood insurance for his property. The rest of us middle to lower income residents are the ones losing here.

A little late, but congrats to Vicky Harte for winning her seat - looking forward to watching her get our voices heard throughout the town and county as we continue to work together to resolve all of the flooding issues EVERYONE has, not just the Tanyard residents, or those near a solar farm, but ALL impacted by thoughtless approved growth without infrastructure and strong guidelines for the developers to follow and then be enforced.

PLEASE protect our farmers! Their livelihood and ours depend upon it. Demand action to upgrade Louisa Town and County development standards and hold our local government accountable for what they continue to approve.

If any of you have attended a Louisa Planning Commission or Town Council or Board of Supervisors meeting, you will notice someone always says, "it meets minimum standards", before they vote for approval. If enough people complain against something, the vote is typically delayed to a later time where the majority of the time, the agenda item is finally approved anyway.

If you do not believe me, just watch the recorded videos of these meetings.

Louisa County and the Town of Louisa are one of the only communities in our State of Virginia that utilizes minimum standards that were developed decades ago. The majority of communities and counties have increased their standards above the minimum for any development proposed for their locale.

Louisa County is the ONLY county in the State of Virginia to not participate in the FEMA Federal Flood Protection Program. This eliminates FEMA assistance for flood induced damage and our home insurance or business insurance will not cover flooding, if located in a floodplain. Private flood insurance to fully cover the damages to your home or business is very expensive and a one-time use policy.

We need to implement floodplain management to reduce the flooding that is currently happening in our County and Town. The lack of a floodplain management plan is the basis for FEMA removing us from the Federal Flood Protection Program besides our local and county governments voting to leave FEMA's Flood Protection Program.

I have lived here for 4 decades and have watched the destruction of private property and have experienced this destruction. We have had no recourse to correct these issues. Every district in Louisa County except for Cuckoo has sent me pictures or videos of the flooding they are having to live with. Why is this acceptable?

This is why I am currently running for a seat on the Louisa Town Council. We must rejoin the FEMA Federal Flood Protection program to protect our neighbor's homes and businesses. FEMA issued a report to our government officials in early 2022 stating the Town of Louisa is expected to experience $720,000,000 in losses due to a flood event. Did anyone report on that to our residents?

Please help protect Louisa and vote for change on November 8th!

Tanyard residence in Town of Louisa, last week. Bubbling is coming from a submerged sewage treatment line manhole.

Do not know if bubbling is due to water going in to the manhole or coming out of the manhole.
