and the levee controversy/finger pointing continues:

foxnews.com

actually an accounting of how much money and where it went through the years would be useful

clueless as the what they're going to do with the 9th ward, the buildings are so decimated the most recent rebuild guidlines:

The decision may not be as simple for those whose homes were built below the base flood elevation standards set by FEMA in its 1984 flood map.

Centenio and members of his department have evaluated the city's houses, assigning a percentage of damage to each. In order to obtain a building permit, a homeowner must raise his house to current elevation standards if the cost to repair it is more than 50 percent of what it would cost to rebuild it. The only other option is to demolish the house.
