Officials Tour Flooded Homes in Oklahoma City

16.07.10

As electric fans hum and garbage piles up on the curb, Rhonda King goes about picking up the pieces from the July 6 flood that left her father-in-law's home in shambles.

King's father-in-law, George King, did not have flood insurance. Inside his home at 5101 S. Harvey, carpet has been torn up and valuables sorted for possible salvage. Rhonda King said the fans will come out soon and they will find out how much mold is on the wallboard and insulation.

"It's going to take a long time to get through everything,'' Rhonda King said. "We haven't gone through things in the back of the house that may or may not be able to be replaced or repaired. The main thing is getting carpet up and everything dried out.''

The cul-de-sac was hammered by the storms that swelled nearby Lightning Creek. At a neighbor's house, mounds of damp carpet and discarded furniture are piled by the curb waiting to be hauled off.

Officials visited about two dozen homes on July 14. The goal is to find out what kind of insurance the home and business owners have and the overall level of damage to their property.
