Aug 16-19, 2025 Storm & Flood Damage: Your Feedback Matters – Complete the Resident Survey

The devastating storm and subsequent flooding that ravaged our community from August 16th to 19th, 2025, left an indelible mark on our homes, businesses, and lives. As we begin the long process of recovery and rebuilding, your voice is crucial. We need your help to accurately assess the damage and ensure that resources are allocated effectively. That's why we urge you to complete the resident survey regarding the storm and flood damage.

Understanding the Impact: Why Your Survey Response is Critical

The information gathered through this survey will be instrumental in:

• Securing vital government aid: Accurate data on the extent of the damage is essential for securing federal, state, and local emergency funding. The more complete the data, the stronger our collective application for aid will be.
• Targeting relief efforts: Understanding the specific needs of our residents—from housing assistance to infrastructure repair—allows us to prioritize and effectively distribute resources where they're needed most.
• Improving future disaster preparedness: Analyzing the data collected will help us better prepare for future emergencies and mitigate the impact of similar events in the years to come. This includes identifying vulnerable areas and strengthening our community's resilience.
• Holding responsible parties accountable: Accurate data allows us to hold those responsible for any negligence that may have contributed to the extent of the damage accountable.

What to Expect in the Survey:

The survey is designed to be straightforward and easy to complete, taking approximately 15-20 minutes. You will be asked about:

• The extent of damage to your property: This includes damage to your home, business, and personal belongings. Be as detailed as possible, including photographic evidence where applicable.
• Your immediate needs: This section focuses on identifying your most pressing needs, such as temporary housing, food, medical care, or financial assistance.
• Your insurance coverage: Providing information on your insurance coverage will help us understand the gaps in support and identify areas where additional assistance may be needed.
