In New York City, the Rapid Repairs Program is designed to speed up the repair and permit process… and hopefully get homes on the road to rebuilding, as soon as possible.
Under the new program, contractors will choose the electricians, plumbers, and other subcontractors to do the work.
To take part in the program, homeowners must have a valid FEMA ID number
That FEMA ID number and complete details can obtained at: www.disasterassistance.gov, OR by calling: 1-800-621-3362.
Homeowners can also get a FEMA ID number at one of the city's "Restoration Centers"…
THEY ARE as follows:
Coney Island at Our Lady of Solace, in Gravesend at the SSA Building
Far Rockaway at 10-01 Beach 20th St,
Staten Island at 1976 Hylan Boulevard.
The centers are open until 8PM daily.
