Both of you are wrong, only a very small portion of the area where the subdivision is being built had water on it in 2016. Most of it was high and dry.

I’d be very surprised if any homes built in EBR after the 80s hit 4-8 feet of water in them.

Thought I was responding to two people, but both comments were from the same person.

You are mostly correct. There were only a handful of developments that were built after the 1987 flood ordinance that flooded in 2016. Those that did were located near the Amite, Comite or Hurricane Creek. A couple of those received 4-6'. Generally, flooding in 16 was in developments that were built post war and pre-flood ordinance.
