Now is the time to begin discussion about rivers, floodplains and what’s ahead! FEMA is updating the Flood Insurance Rate Maps across Vermont. Towns participating in the National Flood Insurance Program may need to update their bylaws before the new maps become official.

How do we use information to avoid damage to homes, businesses, and town services?

Flooding does not need to be a disaster.

In this webinar, attendees will learn about the Vermont Emergency Relief and Assistance Fund and how to plan for flood resilience. bit.ly/fema-map-update
