Brookline Town Plan updated to reflect 2025 Hazard Mitigation Plan flood-resilience work
Summary
The draft Town Plan updates its flood-resilience section to align with Brookline’s 2025 Town Hazard Mitigation Plan, according to a Windham Regional Commission summary at the March 18 hearing. Officials said the update is among revisions to maps and data; the Selectboard will vote to adopt the plan at a later date.
Matt Bachler of the Windham Regional Commission told the Selectboard that flood-resilience language in the draft Town Plan was updated to reflect Brookline’s 2025 Town Hazard Mitigation Plan.
Bachler described the change as part of a package of edits that also updated demographic and mapping material and small state-requirement adjustments. The Selectboard did not take an adoption vote at the hearing; next steps include a Selectboard vote and a 60‑day WRC review that, if completed, would support eligibility for certain state grants.
