"FEMA is Now Here in Howard Beach Seven Days a Week"
Queens, NY – In response to their November 20
storm-related Town Hall held at P.S. 146 by New York State
Assemblyman Phil Goldfeder (D-Far Rockaway) and New York State Senator Joseph Addabbo, Jr. (D-Howard Beach), they announced today that the
Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has now set up a local office at
159-55 102nd Street, Howard Beach, to assist the devastated
community, nearby Hamilton Beach, and other South Queens areas where
home and business owners are still reeling in the aftermath of Superstorm
Sandy.
Goldfeder and Addabbo wasted no time in responding
to the concerns and needs of their constituents by bringing in FEMA
representatives and having them set up a base of operations next to Addabbo’s
Howard Beach district office, which is in the process of being rebuilt after extensive
flood damage.
The office has remained open for business since
the day after “Sandy” hit. FEMA representatives will be at the new Howard Beach
office seven days a week, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., to answer any storm-related
questions from South Queens residents.
