As we experienced in 2005/2006 with Katrina, FEMA has again created a Lodging Assistance Program for individual evacuees.
THIS TIME IT IS DIFFERENT !!
Unlike last time, where all evacuees were covered simply with their FEMA number, evacuees must be APPROVED for lodging assistance.
Before you can be assured of receiving payment for your rooms, you must secure authorization that your evacuee has been approved.
Step one is for you to register your property with Corporate Lodging Consultants in the Lodging Assistance Program. You can do this by going to www.corplodging.com/ELA or calling 866.545.9865.
Once registered you must also be sure that anyone seeking FEMA lodging assistance has FEMA approval for lodging and a lodging assistance authorization number.
YOU WILL ONLY BE PAID FOR THOSE WITH FEMA AUTHORIZATION NUMBERS.
Should you have any questions feel free to call Natasha Carr with the Greater New Orleans Hotel and Lodging Association at 504.525.9326.
