Surry selectmen discuss floodplain maps and emergency-management follow-up for subdivision review
Summary
Selectmen researched floodplain maps for the Mark Gross subdivision Oct. 6 and discussed coordination on FEMA flood-plain survey work; Jason Contrady said he would ask Bruce Smith to follow up and the town requested an Emergency Management contact email.
At their Oct. 6 meeting, Surry selectmen reviewed floodplain mapping related to a proposed subdivision and discussed coordinating with emergency‑management contacts about FEMA survey data.
The minutes record that the Selectmen researched floodplain maps for the Mark Gross subdivision. In a related discussion, Jason Contrady addressed flood maps for emergency management and said he would ask Bruce Smith about the FEMA flood‑plain survey. The Selectmen also requested an Emergency Management contact email be assigned as EmergencyMGT@surry.nh.gov.
Why it matters: floodplain determinations can affect subdivision approvals, building setbacks and emergency planning. The board’s review and the planned follow-up with FEMA‑related contacts indicate further technical review is expected before any permitting decisions.
No formal action or permitting decision on the Mark Gross subdivision was recorded in the Oct. 6 minutes. The minutes do not provide a timetable for receiving FEMA survey information or for when any subdivision decision would be made.
