The county is taking action to provide housing solutions for displaced victims as more than 900 people have been approved for the emergency lodging program.
NATIONAL CITY, Calif. — Since the Jan. 22 flood flooded homes, many families have been staying in hotels. The San Diego County said it is actively addressing the housing needs of these flood victims, particularly as some vouchers have expired.
"We're trying to stay here longer because the other hotels that we've checked out are kind of sketchy, and my mom's is a senior, so I don't want her to be going through any trouble," Hernandez said. On Friday, representatives with the county were in the hotel lobby assisting flood victims whose vouchers had expired or were set to expire. Officials said they started this past weekend, transitioning an estimated 1000 people who were previously given vouchers through several organizations.
The program is offering up to 30 days of temporary housing, requiring applicants to provide proof that they cannot return home due to last month's flooding.
