I would like to see a building design standard that would ban complete metal buildings on heavy traveled roads(ie University Blvd) or next to a neighborhood; and for all roads in the neighborhoods effected by the storm to have curbs and proper drainage.

I still have a big piece of AutoZone in my backyard (2 miles from original location)and if another storm were to come through it would probably help eliminate storm fatalaties by having a strong brick or concrete structure to protect customers in case of another storm. Also I would like to see better designs that would rid the box store design. I think all buildings should at least have an appearance other than a big box. Like Steamboat Springs Colorado, their McDonalds has an arc roof. And please keep the billboards down. Its finally nice to drive down McFarland and see the sky and the scenery, well whats left anyway.

As for curbs and drainage, our creek is completely full of trees and debris from the storm, is there anyone going to help clean this up? Today there are very few trees in our area, which before the storm was full of red oaks and water oaks, to help slow down some of the rain fall run offs. With the trees absense, we are in desperate need of curbs to control the drainage. Please help!!!
