Send us a textThe 2025 Atlantic hurricane season is already underway—and it's expected to be an active one, with forecasts calling for 17 to 25 named storms, up to 13 hurricanes, and as many as 7 major hurricanes. For Florida's community associations, that means flood preparedness is no longer optional—it's urgent.In this episode of Take It to the Board, host Donna DiMaggio Berger welcomes Maurice Huffman, inventor of StormBag—a revolutionary, sandless sandbag that's changing the way neighborhoods and HOAs prepare for storms. Fresh off his appearance on Shark Tank Season 15, where he secured a $200,000 deal from Mark Cuban and Lori Greiner, Maurice shares the story behind StormBag, how it works, and why it's gaining traction across Florida and beyond.Unlike traditional sandbags, StormBags start out as lightweight, compact one-pound pouches that expand to 32-pound barriers when soaked in water—thanks to a polymer that absorbs 300 times its weight. They're clean, reusable, easy to store, and simple enough for a single person to deploy in minutes—making them ideal for both single-family homes and high-rise buildings.Maurice also opens up about the personal tragedy that led him to create StormBag after losing everything in the Paradise, California wildfires and experiencing flood damage shortly after. His Shark Tank journey provides a rare behind-the-scenes look at pitching to the Sharks and what happens after the cameras stop rolling.As climate risks grow and storms become more intense, this episode offers community leaders and homeowners practical insights on better protecting your property with less effort, expense, and environmental impact.Conversation Highlights:How the StormBag technology worksA breakdown of StormBag's cost and how it compares to traditional sandbags, including those distributed for free by some municipalitiesGuidance on how many StormBags are typically needed to protect the entrance of a multifamily buildingEstimates on the number of StormBags required to safeguard a 3,500-square-foot home from floodingInformation on the storage space required to stockpile StormBags in advance of a stormThe origin story behind StormBag and how the idea came to lifeInsights into Maurice's experience pitching on Shark Tank and securing a deal with Mark Cuban and Lori GreinerThe impact of endorsements from FEMA and the Department of Homeland Security, and examples of how HOAs and local governments are adopting StormBag for flood controlWhat community leaders and homeowners should keep in mind when it comes to flood preparedness and mitigationRelated Links:Resource: Becker Hurricane Preparedness and RecoveryOnline Class: Disaster Preparedness and RecoveryArticle: Shark Tank Episode
