Latest word in the flood recovery

The latest is that I have been denyed the state grant money from the NYS Department of Labor's Individual and Family Flood Grant. Now I get the pleasure of going through their appeals system. More paperwork and longer to wait to see what I can do to rebuild.

They said that the books were not covered by the grant. So much for business inventory being covered. I wonder if thats the reason behind 5 or 6 businesses on the main street closeing? Because they were declined this help and as a result had little or no inventory left to sell, sitting in a ruined store....

Of course this also means that I'm automatically declined for the Small Business Grant as well, even though I was preapproved for that one. There goes 20,000 dollars right out the window.
