COMMENTS ON PROPOSED RULES, REGULATIONS OR AGENCY ACTIONS: I would recommend reimbursement for over-time hours of emergency and city personnel or any hours that are expended beyond the normal working conditions. You are simply trying to reimburse the cities for the excess expenses that they would not have incurred but for the hurricane and for the expenses that are not being reimbursed by insurance. You need to encourage the cities to have property insurance and to promptly reimburse the cities for the deductibles MARK SOKOLOW ATTORNEY AT LAW 338 Wedgerock Webster, Texas 77598 http://mtsokolow-attorney.com mark@mtsokolow-attorney.com
