East Baton Rouge Parish is inland, so its storm risk is rain flooding along the Amite and Comite rivers and long power outages rather than surge; the August 2016 flood reached neighborhoods from Central to Southeast Baton Rouge. Federal certification rules require an emergency plan with evacuation and shelter-in-place procedures and backup power arrangements, so ask where residents would go and what the generator keeps running.
