The Town will be holding a public meeting to present and seek comment from the local and regional communities on the Town of Cavendish 2023-2028 Local Hazard Mitigation Plan Draft as part of their Selectboard Meeting agenda.

The Plan identifies natural hazards that are most impactful to the Cavendish community and includes Strategies and Actions to reduce vulnerabilities and potential risks to hazards such as flooding, erosion, extreme temperatures and winter storms. The public is encouraged to attend and share their thoughts as the effectiveness of this planning effort relies on local engagement.

The Mount Ascutney Regional Commission (MARC), will be presenting the draft plan and taking comments and questions.
