Chuck Appleby wanted answers back in March as he grappled with how to get his family back into their Seaside Park home that was damaged by Superstorm Sandy.

He and many other Sandy victims with questions attended a town hall meeting in Manasquan on March 21 to hear what Gov. Chris Christie had to say.

Appleby, a Seaside Park Planning Board member, was satisfied with one answer he heard: If you build now, you will be reimbursed, Christie said. So Appleby, who is unemployed, went ahead with rebuilding his home.
