ANNEX L: TOWN OF WENDELL

To supplement the asset inventory and provide a clearer picture of the current asset exposure in the Town of Wendell, current parcel data was evaluated to identify development since 2010. This information is not incorporated into the risk assessm ent, which was prepared using NCEM’s IRISK database. However, this summary of development since 2010 provides some context to understand the degree to which the IRISK exposure and vulnerability numbers differ from current conditions. Table L.6 provides a summary by land class of parcel development from January 2011 to April 2019. Table L.6 – Parcels Developed 2011 or Later, Town of Wendell
