Norwich LHMP Community Meeting

The Town of Norwich is in the process of updating its Local Hazard Mitigation Plan. Local Hazard Mitigation Plans enable towns to qualify for grant funds, and they make our communities safer. The second Norwich Hazard Mitigation planning meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, July 28, 2020 at 11:00 AM via Zoom. The focus of the meeting will be to discuss mitigation actions and strategies that the Town of Norwich should prioritize for the next five years. The meeting is open to all interested community members.

Local Hazard Mitigation Plans are part of an effort by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to reduce damage from foreseeable natural and human-caused hazards. Examples of projects in local plans include increasing culvert sizes, regulating flood hazard areas, stabilizing landslides, and tree trimming near power lines.
