Develop for public dissemination building inspections brochures regarding high winds, water damage prevention, and tie downs for accessory structures. The Town will inventory all its structures located within or immediately adjacent to known flood hazard areas. In the upcoming zoning and development ordinance update / re-write (UDO), look for ways discourage and steer high density residential and other at-risk populations (daycares, schools, and retirement facilities as examples) The Town has a service to respond to requests and questions from citizens regarding actions they may take to improve drainage, halt erosion, and to relocate, renovate or retrofit structures being flooded.
