Most everything below Grandlake is considered V zone. The parish is under Federal guidelines to enforce them or be taken out of the flood program. Ray is correct on the elevation and costs associated. A pad is more than double pilings and still has to meet elev certification. Cameron parish will not budge not matter who you are or how much money you have. I would call Crain Bros and find out how much they are charging per pilling, get a rate on 2 cranes and do the math.
Vermilion parish will be sending out similar notices soon. There fed dollars will be pulled if they don't follow the guidelines just like Cameron parish. There are several new trailers between billys and rollover that are post Rita. They were pulled in around Nov 05 and nothing was done but they cannot get flood coverage.
