The parish finally agreed to build the levee and stop the funneling of water into our neighborhood. It has been a long and draining fight but our safety is now the priority. I will keep watching them to ensure they actually break ground.

EMERGENCY WOODLAWN RANCH ROAD PETITION "A CRY TO PROTECT EAST HOUMA" This purpose of this petition is to make the Terrebonne Parish Consolidated Government aware that we the people of East Houma demand some form of emergency levee south of woodlawn ranch road . It is of utmost importance that something be built immediatley before a tropical event brings oil into our homes. East Houma floods more than ever because parish government continues to raise levees directly south of the Woodlawn Ranch Road creating a FUNNEL EFFECT forcing water deep into East Houma between Grand Caillou Road and HWY 24"Main Street".

The silence from the Parish government remains heavy but it only proves how much they are ignoring the funnel effect we are dealing with. I have been spending my energy meeting with neighborhood representatives to keep the pressure on because waiting for a tropical event to force their hand is not an option.

Fix this drain problem. We have paid our taxes and we deserve to be protected just like everyone else.

My garage flooded twice last year. Enough is enough. Do something about this funnel before the next storm hits.
