The cost of these insurance rates, which you have to have if you have a mortgage on your home, is driving people out of the Keys!

Home owners should not be eradicated because of un-affordable flood insurance costs, nor should they be forced to live in areas that do not require insurance. This is America and we have the right to live where we choose, not where the government tell us to !

We need to address this is a reasonable and fair way. The keys homes r some of the best constructed around with an eye on being in harms way for storms, therefore giving us a leg up on any storm mishaps......

please pass the "HOMEOWNERS FLOOD INSURANCE AFFORDABILITY ACT" (S1610).
It is nearly impossible for us to do business here in the Keys or all Florida coastal areas.
All construction and connected professions will be impacted by this. Many people will have NO JOBS because of this unaffordable flood insurance, even the insurances will feel the wrath of this doing when they will have no more business. Give us more time and do a study about HOW you can rise flood premiums so it makes sense. Don't forget, we are in an election year and you too will feel our dissatisfaction if you should RUIN US!
I'm sure though you don't want more unemployed good citizens in Florida and hope, you will do the right thing:
VOTE FOR THE HOMEOWNERS FLOOD INSURANCE AFFORDABILITY ACT!!!!!!!!

However, rate increases of 2000 - 3000% are unconscionable. Destroying the economic viability of our shore communities is not the solution. The vast majority of these residents are hard-working, lower and middle-class people, and retirees. They are not all wealthy fat cats gaming the system.

No matter how much it rains, we never flood! The rain simply runs into the Ocean (ocean levels don't change). Our only risk of flooding is an ocean surge, caused by a hurricane. Unlike flooding along the Miss. River, which happens every year, storm surges in the Keys are quite rare. Clearly, our rates are being used to subsidize people who live along mainland rivers.

It is not the costal areas only that get flooded. And when we do rarely get flooded, it drains relatively quickly not like in other areas of the country where flood waters stay and cause more damage. When will the people of the Keys be treated fairly by the insurance industry and the government???? We are not all rich down here as many people think!
