Throughout all eight hurricanes ordsprog

Throughout all eight hurricanes [that hit Florida since August 2004], we have found clear cases where newer and better built homes fares better than older homes.

The benefit of this strengthened code has been shown throughout the past couple of years during these horrible hurricane seasons. Homes built under the new code have withstood the storms in a way that was really never before seen in the state of Florida. Homes built under the older code didn't fare as well.

We have learned that all of Florida is vulnerable to hurricanes and stricter building codes that have saved homes in South Florida could have saved homes in Central and North Florida as well.

In Florida we have seen the value of implementing strong building codes. Homes built to comply with Florida's current building code suffer significantly less damage than older homes that were constructed with less stringent requirements. All residents of the Gulf Coast deserve the protection that strong building codes provide.

It's a real showcase of how older historical homes can be transformed into 21st century livable homes. It shows that you don't have to tear down what we value from the past.
