Long-Term Recovery committee presents Derry Resilience Project to Selectboard
Summary
The Long-Term Recovery Committee presented the Derry Resilience Project, a FEMA-recommended plan addressing periodic flooding with five goals and ten projects; the Selectboard agreed to review and consider endorsing the plan at a future meeting.
George Mora described a process, begun after FEMA suggested a local resilience plan, that gathered resident input and resulted in the Derry Resilience Project. Mora said the plan sets five goals: improving emergency response, preparing for future disasters via hazard mitigation and preparedness, building community communications and volunteerism, planning for affordable and vibrant long-term development, and strengthening regional cooperation.
Mora said the plan identifies ten projects across five categories (Fire Department strategic planning; emergency preparedness and response; hazard mitigation; community development; and regional cooperation) and names champions and partners for each project. The Selectboard agreed to take up the plan at its next meeting and to consider supporting its recommendations.
