Calaveras County Republican meeting features guest speaker David Tunno on 'The FEMA Scheme'

The Calaveras County Republican general meeting will be the first Tuesday of November.
 
General Meeting
Tuesday, November 5
6:00 PM
711 McCauley Road, Greenhorn Creek
Angels Camp
 
Guest speaker:  David Tunno,  "The FEMA Scheme"
 
The FEMA Scheme was the first of two reports by David Tunno on the effects of FEMA’s flood map designations in Calaveras County and the resulting forced flood insurance policies.  The speaker will explain, in his view, why and how FEMA added thousands of parcels to the flood map in Calaveras County, as part of a nationwide effort, and the effects of those designations on property owners.
            The reports have spread to other regions, with Mr. Tunno getting calls from people across the U.S. adversely affected by FEMA’s controversial actions.  Those actions have gained national media attention recently.


 
            The presentation is open to the public.  Property owners recently affected by new FEMA flood designations are encouraged to attend and share their stories.
            David Tunno is a retired trial consultant in Rancho Calaveras and the author of the book, Fixing the Engine of Justice:  Diagnosis and Repair of Our Jury System.  His articles and letters to the editor on topics of local and national interest appear regularly in the local media.
