FEMA Coastal Assessment

On Wednesday, March 30th and Thursday, March 31st of this week, we are being visited by a team from FEMA (the Federal Emergency Management Agency) and MEMA (Massachusetts Emergency Management). The reason for this visit is to assess the Town’s preparedness for, and response to, storm events as these affect the National flood Insurance Program (NFIP) on which many of our residents depend. Selected coastal properties with recent improvements may be observed during tours which have been scheduled from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM each day.

Please note all observations will be from the public way. No access to private property will be sought.
