What
is being done to restore power in my community?
Please note Public Works crews are
working around the clock to restore power within our AMCC housing
communities. Because of Isaias, you may experience intermittent
power interruptions in the coming days and weeks. To prepare for
restoring power that may surge, be sure to turn off or unplug items
not in use. Please continue to keep a close eye for text and
emails, on AMCC Facebook page and your installation Facebook
page for updates on power restoration. ** Please Note: that some of
our AMCC properties are Duke Energy.
What
about any personal items that may have been damaged?
All damages to your personal items
related to Isaias should be reported directly to your renter’s
insurance company. AMCC will cover any damage to your home, but not
to your personal items. This also includes any food loss due to
power outages, as AMCC does not cover this type of loss.
Will
AMCC allow me to relocate to another AMCC home if my home is
damaged?
AMCC will assist residents in finding
alternative housing on a case by case basis, as deemed necessary.
Your property management staff may not be able to immediately take
requests for updates regarding a specific property or unit until we
are able to resume normal business hours. However, managers will
proactively communicate directly with residents regarding damages
at each of our communities as they are able to access and check
properties.
It is imperative that we communicate priority lists are being made
for residents whose homes are uninhabitable due to damage related
to Isaias. In the event your home is deemed unsuitable for living
in, AMCC will work with you on a case-by-case basis to arrange
accommodations for you and your family.
I was
scheduled to PCS, but my move has been delayed. Can I remain in my
home until the movers are able to accommodate me?
Yes, you may remain in your home if
your move is delayed. Please keep AMCC informed of any changes to
your move-out as planned.

& recycling containers. Trash & recycling service has not
yet resumed, but we will keep you updated as services return.

be reimbursed for rent while I was out of my home for
Hurricane/Tropical Storm Isaias?
