Skies have been clear for more than a week, but dozens of families evacuated from their flooded apartment building on New Year's Eve still can't go home.
Flood waters damaged the electrical system at Coliseum Connections apartments and townhomes in East Oakland. The complex has 110 units and is home to more than 300 people.
"When we came home from the hospital, we were at the Courtyard Marriott in Oakland," Smith said."Then, we found out that we were getting moved to Emeryville. So we were like 'we've got to go pack everything up from the Courtyard, brand new baby in a car seat, stroller, 6-year-old son, all the snacks.' It was just a lot."
"We need help," evacuated resident Alex Vila added."This is time to the phone and put pressure Don't let our skin and our accent Come help us." "It's been 27 days, what do we need to do? And we're not welfare recipients. We are not crack heads. These are workers. I am a professional," said Vila.
"Not only that, but also we're being charged water, trash, and sewage," evacuated resident Josue Franco. said."We have not been there for 30 days. But yet, we're still expected to pay our full amounts on the 1st."
