Floodplain permits add 2–3 weeks to roofing work, Lyons staff say

During the webinar a resident who identified their property as being "in the Confluence" asked about floodplain development permit requirements for repairs. Lisa Ritchie said the floodplain development permit is a FEMA requirement and that timing depends on floodplain degree and documentation. "Typically, those are going to add about, excuse me, 2 to 3 weeks, before we're going to be able to issue your permit," she said, and she urged residents to contact the town engineer, Justin Doles, for specific guidance.
