That milestone matters for homeowners who were racing to apply — they either made it or they didn&amp;rsquo;t. But for homeowners with grants already executed, or grants that will execute in the coming weeks, the work is just starting.
This post is for Solution 2 homeowners who have an award letter and ECR in hand, or are about to. The process from here.</description></item><item><title>Application Deadline Extended to October 31</title><link>https://adamsindustriesllc.com/blog/2023-10-application-deadline-extended/</link><pubDate>Fri, 20 Oct 2023 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://adamsindustriesllc.com/blog/2023-10-application-deadline-extended/</guid><description>On October 19, the Restore Louisiana Homeowner Assistance Program announced an extension of the application deadline to Tuesday, October 31, 2023. The extension is aimed at approximately 6,500 homeowners who completed the initial survey but haven&amp;rsquo;t yet submitted the full application.
The official announcement is on the program&amp;rsquo;s news page: Restore Louisiana Homeowner Assistance Program Extends Application Deadline to Tuesday, Oct. 31. Local coverage from KPLC summarized the announcement the same day.</description></item><item><title>The Survey Deadline Is August 1: What Louisiana Homeowners Should Do This Week</title><link>https://adamsindustriesllc.com/blog/2023-07-survey-deadline-approaching/</link><pubDate>Wed, 12 Jul 2023 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://adamsindustriesllc.com/blog/2023-07-survey-deadline-approaching/</guid><description>If you&amp;rsquo;re a Louisiana homeowner with unrepaired damage from Hurricanes Laura, Delta, Zeta, Ida, or the May 2021 severe storms, and you haven&amp;rsquo;t completed the Restore Louisiana initial survey — do it this week.
The state has set August 1, 2023 as the deadline to complete the initial survey for 2020-21 disaster events. The survey is the gateway to everything else in the program: without it, you can&amp;rsquo;t be invited to apply, which means you can&amp;rsquo;t be awarded funds, which means no Solution 1 or Solution 2 project.</description></item><item><title>Restore Louisiana Expands Eligibility: More 2020-21 Homeowners Qualify</title><link>https://adamsindustriesllc.com/blog/2023-05-restore-louisiana-expands-eligibility/</link><pubDate>Thu, 18 May 2023 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://adamsindustriesllc.com/blog/2023-05-restore-louisiana-expands-eligibility/</guid><description>This week, Governor John Bel Edwards announced a meaningful expansion of eligibility for the Restore Louisiana Homeowner Assistance Program. The changes open the program up to homeowners who didn&amp;rsquo;t qualify under the original criteria — particularly those with lower damage amounts and those who received larger insurance settlements.
If you filed and were told you didn&amp;rsquo;t qualify — or if you never filed because you assumed you didn&amp;rsquo;t — now is the time to re-check.</description></item><item><title>The 180-Day Clock: Why Solution 2 Timelines Matter and How to Keep Yours Moving</title><link>https://adamsindustriesllc.com/blog/2023-03-the-180-day-clock/</link><pubDate>Wed, 22 Mar 2023 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://adamsindustriesllc.com/blog/2023-03-the-180-day-clock/</guid><description>Two dates govern every Solution 2 project:
180 days from grant execution: construction must begin, with at least one inspection documenting progress. 365 days from grant execution: construction must complete, unless a written hardship extension is approved. These aren&amp;rsquo;t targets. They&amp;rsquo;re the rules. Miss them without the right paperwork and you have a real problem — including the possibility that the program pulls funding for work that hasn&amp;rsquo;t happened.
Here&amp;rsquo;s how to keep the clock moving.</description></item><item><title>Adams Industries Joins Solution 2 as a Participating Louisiana Contractor</title><link>https://adamsindustriesllc.com/blog/2023-01-adams-industries-joins-solution-2/</link><pubDate>Wed, 18 Jan 2023 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://adamsindustriesllc.com/blog/2023-01-adams-industries-joins-solution-2/</guid><description>We&amp;rsquo;re glad to confirm what many of you already knew informally: Adams Industries is a participating contractor for Solution 2 of the Restore Louisiana Homeowner Assistance Program.
This isn&amp;rsquo;t a new thing we&amp;rsquo;re doing. It&amp;rsquo;s the paperwork finally catching up to the work we&amp;rsquo;ve been doing for two decades — licensed Louisiana residential construction with documented scopes, insurance coordination, and a schedule that actually holds.
What this means if you&amp;rsquo;re a homeowner If your home qualifies for the Restore Louisiana Homeowner Assistance Program and you&amp;rsquo;ve chosen Solution 2 (or are still deciding), you can pick Adams Industries directly.</description></item><item><title>The Project Plan: What Solution 2 Homeowners Should Expect to Sign</title><link>https://adamsindustriesllc.com/blog/2022-10-the-project-plan-what-to-expect/</link><pubDate>Thu, 06 Oct 2022 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://adamsindustriesllc.com/blog/2022-10-the-project-plan-what-to-expect/</guid><description>The Project Plan is the single most important piece of paper you&amp;rsquo;ll sign as a Solution 2 homeowner. It&amp;rsquo;s the document the program uses to track your project, release your draws, and verify completion. It&amp;rsquo;s also the document that pins the contractor to a scope and schedule.
Here&amp;rsquo;s what goes into one — and what to check before you sign.
What the program wants in the Project Plan At minimum, the Project Plan needs:</description></item><item><title>How to Vet a Solution 2 Contractor: A Homeowner's Checklist</title><link>https://adamsindustriesllc.com/blog/2022-07-vetting-a-solution-2-contractor/</link><pubDate>Tue, 19 Jul 2022 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://adamsindustriesllc.com/blog/2022-07-vetting-a-solution-2-contractor/</guid><description>If you&amp;rsquo;re filing under Solution 2, you&amp;rsquo;re the one picking the contractor. The program verifies a couple of things — license and insurance — with the Louisiana State Licensing Board for Contractors, and after that the evaluation is on you.
Here&amp;rsquo;s the checklist we tell homeowners to run through before signing anything.
1. Confirm the Louisiana license directly Don&amp;rsquo;t take a screenshot from a contractor&amp;rsquo;s website as proof. Go to lslbc.</description></item><item><title>Solution 1 vs Solution 2: Picking the Right Path for Your Louisiana Recovery</title><link>https://adamsindustriesllc.com/blog/2022-04-solution-1-vs-solution-2/</link><pubDate>Thu, 14 Apr 2022 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://adamsindustriesllc.com/blog/2022-04-solution-1-vs-solution-2/</guid><description>We&amp;rsquo;ve been getting the same question from homeowners all week: &amp;ldquo;I&amp;rsquo;m in the Restore Louisiana program. How do I decide between Solution 1 and Solution 2?&amp;rdquo;
There&amp;rsquo;s no universal right answer, but there&amp;rsquo;s a framework that makes it obvious for most people.
The short version Solution 1 is program-managed construction. The state selects a pool of contractors, assigns the work, and runs the project from scope through sign-off. You&amp;rsquo;re less in the driver&amp;rsquo;s seat and the process moves on the program&amp;rsquo;s schedule.</description></item><item><title>Restore Louisiana Launches for 2020-21 Hurricane Homeowners</title><link>https://adamsindustriesllc.com/blog/2022-02-restore-louisiana-launches-for-2020-21-homeowners/</link><pubDate>Tue, 22 Feb 2022 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://adamsindustriesllc.com/blog/2022-02-restore-louisiana-launches-for-2020-21-homeowners/</guid><description>After nearly eighteen months of waiting, the Louisiana Office of Community Development opened the doors this month on the next phase of the Restore Louisiana Homeowner Assistance Program.

For anyone who&amp;rsquo;s been living under a tarp for a year and change, this is the federal money catching up to the damage.</description></item></channel></rss>
