Hazard Mitigation Planning is an important facet for any town and a mandatory requirement of FEMA before any FEMA funding can be awarded to the town. By developing an approved plan, the town can earn a greater percentage of state funding during recovery from a disaster and be better prepared to handle a future crisis. Your input is crucial to the planning process and the information you provide will help produce a plan that will serve the town for years to come.  Please take the time to share your thoughts on the questions below on or before August 17th. Thank you!
