Recovery team outlines multi-project flood recovery plan and funding steps
Summary
The town’s long-term recovery team summarized a multi-project plan following recent floods, including relocation of the South Dairy fire station, emergency communications improvements, and scoping for the North Village; the team said several projects are prioritized for grant consideration.
Project champions presented an overview of the town’s long-term recovery plan, which grew from meetings beginning in December and included a community engagement session that attracted roughly 28 participants. The plan lists a variety of projects — emergency-preparedness updates, a community emergency communications website and newsletter, and hazard-mitigation scoping for the North Village river corridor — with action steps, cost estimates and project champions identified for next steps.
One presenter said several projects have been prioritized for potential funding, and the team is working to refine scope and cost estimates so that the town is positioned to apply as funding opportunities arise. Board members praised the effort and suggested making summary storyboards more visible to recruit project champions and volunteers.
