Public Meeting - Adoption of Hazard Mitigation Plan 2021 Update

PRESS RELEASE

Deering Hazard Mitigation Plan Update 2021 Adoption Meeting

DEERING: The Deering Board of Selectmen will hold a duly-noticed public meeting on Thursday, October 7, 2021 at 7:00 PM at the Deering Town Hall, 762 Deering Center Road, to adopt the Deering Hazard Mitigation Plan Update 2021 developed by the Hazard Mitigation Committee with the assistance of the Central NH Regional Planning Commission. The Plan’s update, required by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) every five years, will enable the Town to regain eligibility of federal disaster recovery and mitigation grant funding. The Plan has been awarded Approvable Pending Adoption (APA) status by NH Homeland Security and Emergency Management and now requires the Board’s adoption before federal formal approval can be issued.

The Deering Hazard Mitigation Plan Update 2021 and its maps will be available for viewing at the Town Hall and online at www.deering.nh.us prior to the meeting.

For more information, contact Russell McAllister, Town Administrator, at 603.464.3248 or administrator@deering.nh.us.
