Building Assessments Ongoing in Long Beach After Sandy

According to the City of Long Beach, building officials will be visiting every home in the city.

Each home will be graded either green, yellow or red.

  • Green = home is OK
  • Yellow = homes damaged and LIPA will require electrical work before power can be restored
  • Red = Home is condemned due to substantial damage
Debris can be left curbside and the city's sanitation department will resume pickup seven days a week.

To start the reimbursement and aid process, contact FEMA at fema.gov or by visiting Nassau Community College. You can also contact the NCC FEMA representatives at 770-216-3335 or 800-621-2262.
