Sandy

A central New Jersey man has admitted swindling more than $12,000 from the Federal Emergency Management Agency after Superstorm Sandy.

Ocean County health officials have launched an online survey in an effort to get a grasp on the needs that remain after Superstorm Sandy.

The federal government won't drop rules that many Superstorm Sandy victims say are among the biggest impediments to rebuilding more quickly.

Even though snow is still hanging around, beach season isn't too far away, and Jersey Shore communities are thinking of ways to attract visitors to each individual stretch of sand.

Over a year later, some Ocean County municipalities are still waiting for Superstorm Sandy recovery money. But the wait may soon be over.

The state of New Jersey says a company it hired to oversee the rebuilding of homes damaged or destroyed by Superstorm Sandy is being phased out of its duties.

While the U.S. Senate has approved a plan to delay a hike in flood insurance premiums, the measure remains stalled in the House of Representatives. This has Jersey Shore-based Superstorm Sandy victims and officials on edge.

Gov. Chris Christie announced Wednesday that funding has exceeded $11 million within a voucher program that targets Superstorm Sandy victims dealing with home repairs or temporary housing.

On Tuesday, community advocates told the state Senate Legislative Oversight Committee that the majority of New Jersey victims who applied for federal Sandy relief aid were rejected when they should have been approved. They blasted the Christie administration for lacking transparency in the process.

Recovery from Sandy continues at the shore and all across New Jersey, nearly 16 months after the storm. Meanwhile, frustration continues to mount in Ocean County as many communities wait with bated breath for federal relief funds.
