Omaha neighborhood continues to feel impact of late September floods
Two homes in the Karen Western neighborhood were deemed "danger closed," but several homes still need to undergo construction in order to be lived in comfortably again. The late September floods that occurred in the Karen Western neighborhood of Omaha, Nebraska, have left a significant amount of damage to the home of Cody Byers' 91-year-old grandpa, who has lived in the area for 60 years, has now left his home and no longer lives there. The Byers family is removing all furniture, photos, and other belongings from their grandfather's home to begin reconstruction. The damage to their home is estimated to be anywhere between $30-40,000. Paul Steffens, a nearby landlord, has been working on his property since the disaster and estimates that the cost of the damage will be between $300-40k.
