Imperial Estates, Brooksville, Hernando Count FL Power Restored Post-Hurricane Irma, Resident Stories

ImperialEstatesBrooksvilleFLPowerRestoredDailyBusinessNewsMHProNewsIf Facebook comments and posts on the Imperial Estates manufactured home community in Brooksville, FL are any indication, is a modest yet nice place where residents are sharing their joy at the return of power to their community.

 

Humor was in evidence in this first video, which shows electrical lines as “skipping ropes,” and a power tower jumping those lines for joy.

Social media posted by Denise Webster Bauer and others suggest  that Imperial Estates is a clean, appealing place for singles, couples – and families – to live, learn, and hang their hats.

A news report by WTSP in Tampa stated that this location was “one of the last communities in Tampa Bay to get their power restored following Hurricane Irma. The park [sic] and its 135 mobile homes [sic] lost power immediately following the storm and had been without electricity ever since. Power was finally restored around midday Thursday.”

Even as residents shared their experiences via the posted news video, they were thinking about how much worse it was for American citizens on the island of Puerto Rico, post Hurricane Maria (see the post-Maria report, linked here).

As horrible as this situation has been, folks here can’t help but think about the people down in Puerto Rico where power could be out for six months to a year,” WTSB’s report said.

To think down there and you lose everything. It was bad enough in the whole state of Florida, but down there… it’s worse,” said Jean Gween.

Early reports about manufactured home communities coming out of Florida indicate a range of damage from minor to severe.

All the more reason residents here say they’re so grateful the power has returned,” their report wrapped.

But among the concerns raised by this report is that the flooding could have been caused or made worse by draining issues created by the county.  Are these citizens being treated differently, because they live in manufactured homes? ## (News, analysis, commentary – related issue of discrimination toward manufactured home residents, linked here.)
