Folks in the Walker County town of Cordova have been left with so many unanswered questions.

A city council meeting yielded no results to an ongoing temporary housing battle in the town. It was a public meeting on Thursday night to deal with a long-term recovery agreement with FEMA. The meeting ended with the passing of a resolution, but no one will explain the details.

Residents and even some council members are confused by the resolution.

At the beginning of the meeting, Mayor Jack Scott hurried his way into the chamber before passing out the resolution. The council voted and passed the resolution and Scott promptly left the meeting only minutes after arriving. Scott refused to answer any questions on the way to his truck.

FEMA's Walker County spokesperson Mary Margaret Walker says the plan involves putting storm victims in rental housing within 25 miles of the city.

Out of a total of 41 hiking trails in the U.S. that will be honored nationally on Thursday, more than half of those trails are located in Alabama. For the second consecutive year, Alabama leads the way with the number of trails that will receive the National Recreation Trail designation. This year, 21 of the state's trails will be honored, bringing the number of trails honored in the past two years up to a total of 30.

“Alabama is blessed with a rich diversity of outdoor recreation opportunities,” Alabama Department of Economic and Community Affairs Director Jim Byard Jr. said. “These designations not only prove our state has many high-quality trails, they also are evidence of the hard work and the community pride of countless Alabamians."

ADECA encouraged local trail managers to submit applications for the designation to the National Park Service.   

From the Alabama Forestry Commission:

If you own 250 or less forest acres in Alabama, are interested in control burning 10-80 acres or mulching up to 5 acres, and are not enrolled in another cost-share program, you may be eligible for a new grant.
