We are excited to announce that the 2025 Benson Local Hazard Mitigation Plan is finally live! The Plan received formal approval from FEMA on June 2, 2026, and will remain effective until June 1, 2031. You can access the FEMA-approved Plan at https://tinyurl.com/Benson-LHMP25 until June 30, 2026.

After this date, the project page will be retired, and the Plan will be housed at the Town Office and on the RRPC website, https://www.rutlandrpc.org/town/benson/

On behalf of the local Planning Team, we want to thank those who contributed to the Plan update and anyone who may be interested in reviewing Benson's mitigation progress in the future.

Public Notice - Wallingford Engaged in Hazard Mitigation Planning
The Town of Wallingford is updating its 2021 Local Hazard Mitigation Plan!

The Plan serves as a guidebook for identifying and addressing local risks and vulnerabilities, helping Wallingford become more resilient to natural hazards. For the month of May, we want to hear from our residents about what natural hazards you are most concerned about! Share your feedback by taking our online survey at https://tinyurl.com/wallingford-lhmp26-survey.

Paper copies are also available at the Town Hall and Gilbert Hart Library and must be submitted to the Town Clerk by June 1, 2026.

The Town will also be doing a "pop-up" event on May 16 (May 30 rain date), so keep an eye out for posters in the Wallingford Village Center and let us know your priorities with colorful stickers!

Brandon: A Hub & Our Home

Brandon community members are invited to join a free community dinner and discussion on local topics on Thursday, April 30 from 4:30-8:30pm at the Otter Valley Middle & High School.

You can share your ideas about infrastructure, affordability, housing and jobs, public safety, education, community services and more. All are welcome to join the “Brandon: A Hub & Our Home” 3-step process: residents, students, families, and anyone who works in town, owns a business, or cares about the future of the community. We will offer childcare, and you can find help getting a ride or other accessibility needs on the flier or the website bit.ly/BrandonOurHome.

Steps 2 and 3 of “Brandon: A Hub & Our Home” will be held May 27 at the Town Hall and June 25 (location TBD) to decide top priorities and build action plans. These events are hosted by the Vermont Council on Rural Development (VCRD), an independent nonprofit that has worked with more than 90 towns in Vermont.
