Just wait till the City Of Denham Springs requires the home to be raised after all the work is done to the home to qualify for flood insurance. Good friend of mine right now is in this predicament. We've gutted his home, dehumidified it ,he's got new exterior doors and windows on order but is afraid to go any further until he hears from the city.
Those homes foundations are not built to withstand a 2 story home. Any ruling that requires this to be done would be the most retarded thing i've ever heard of should they go this route.

I doubt you see anything like that. This flood event was a 1:1000 year event. You just simply don't build to withstand a 1:1000 year flood.

I'm hearing criteria is damage can't be more than 50% of homes value.
If it is, you've got to raise it and won't get permit.
