DENHAM SPRINGS - It s been almost five years since the devastating flood in 2016 and some victims feel as if they re being hit again.
People in Livingston Parish received letters last week with a startling warning about mitigation efforts to their home that includes raising their property or tearing the structure down. There are 1,221 homeowners in the parish that are facing this tough reality.
Homeowners who live on Wolf Creek Place in Denham Springs received about six feet of water in their homes in 2016. They gutted their properties and made repairs. Coy Martin says he gutted his home up to his ceilings.
