 Every day, Jim and Debbie Shell have to walk 500 feet rain or shine just to make it to their home. Along this road, there are cracks, breaks, and narrow turns to get to their house at the top of the hill. It's been really hard getting home. We have no access to medical, police, fire, nothing. And anything we get, we usually have to carry it home. We have to walk in and walk out. Carter Lane in the City of Paintsville leads to two households, the Daniels and the Shells. Since March, these two couples, along with five other families, have been dealing with home and property damage from a landslide. Dale Daniel and his wife, Ruby, are another family affected by the slide. The foundation is cracking. The posts up front here on the porch is cracking. Cracks in the plaster drywall inside the water lines, sewer lines, has been pulled apart and had to repair those a couple of times and put them on top of the ground. The slide is bigger than the surveyors originally thought and blue ribbon marks boundaries around the affected area. Seven homes between Carter Lane and Fifth Street are in danger of being overtaken by the slide. Mayor Bob Porter commented on the situation. And certainly I'd like folks to know, and I believe they do know that we're doing everything that can possibly be done to assist them. I've spoken to virtually all the property owners many times about this situation and have advised them that there's really no good solutions at this point in time other than to seek mitigation assistance from FEMA. The city has hired an engineer and others to assess the situation and will be sending in an application to FEMA. The families affected just want some help. We need to first of all help the people at home and in the United States because like Nepal when they had the earthquake we gave money for them within so many hours, we gave them a million dollars. But yet we're having trouble, you know, it's already been two months and we're still waiting for FEMA, the federal government, somebody to help. We're still waiting for answers.
