How much is the government asking for the trailers that FEMA used during Hurricane Katrina?
The Obama administration on Wednesday will announce plans to sell about 1,800 trailers to families displaced by Hurricane Katrina who are living in government housing, The Washington Post reports. The move comes weeks after the trailer program officially ended on May 1. FEMA officials said they could start referring cases for eviction on June 1. Typically, FEMA provides aid for 18 months after a disaster. The organization has extended the aid for 45 months for Katrina victims. Officials plan to sell the trailers for $1 and $5, depending on the model of the home. More details will be available on the program once the official announcement is made.
