If you lost your car or other property due to storm/flooding can you get reimbursed from FEMA?

FEMA SHOULD PROVIDE RESIDENTS AND BUSINESSES WITH INFO --WILL WE BE ABLE TO GET REIMBURSED FOR LOSSES DUE TO FLOOD DAMAGE ---MANY PEOPLE HAVE SIGNIFICANT LOSSES--CARS THAT DON'T WORK, BOILERS THAT ARE BROKEN, SUBSTANTIAL PROPERTY LOSSES

Many people don't have flood insurance and their insurance has denied claims

SO FAR - FEMA HASN'T PROVIDED MUCH INFO---WILL THERE BE PARTIAL/FULL REIMBURSEMENT...WHAT FORMS SHOULD PEOPLE COMPLETE...PHOTOS, RECEIPTS NEEDED

Some residents have asked --will FEMA reimburse residents and businesses for lost property due to the flood (boilers, vehicles that were damaged, other property that had to be thrown out). As soon as FEMA confirms that residents and businesses are eligible for reimbursement we will immediately post information on the town website. In the meantime, take photo's of the damages. Keep receipts. Yesterday I asked Senator Gillibrand's regional office if FEMA will make grants available to residents and they said yes but they don't have info as of yet on the details. I will also invite FEMA to a community meeting to discuss how people can get reimbursed once details are finalized. Will do everything possible to make the process as easy as possible for residents.

It's frustrating --many people don't have adequate insurance to cover their flood related losses --which are substantial. I hope that FEMA finalizes details re: reimbursements soon and that those who have suffered can get the help needed.
