Economic Survey

At the end of our August meeting, we mentioned that we are looking to gather information on homeowners’ flood-related damage costs to make an argument for the economic impact of the persistent, increasing floods. It is important for as many property owners as possible to share this information so we have an accurate representation of economic loss. We have created an anonymous survey to gather the flood-related damage costs to each property. The survey does not record your name or email address. (Please have only one homeowner from each property complete the survey.) Please use this link to complete this anonymous survey: https://forms.gle/zgk9Jbzh2z3fWhXV8

Flooding – July 2024

The Huron River as of July 12th, has now surpassed the flood level and is currently at 7.23 feet. There is now No Wake throughout the region. Also, the prediction has increased to now reach 7.7 feet on Sunday, 7/14. The river level continues to climb. Please be safe and go slowly as you move through flood water. As you continue to experience flooding on your property, please report it on iFlood.org. And reach out if you need any help with the continually increasing water levels. 

January Flooding

The flood prediction has increased to 7.7’ on Tuesday. If we reach that level, it will be the 5th highest flood, exceeding the last winter flood in January 2020 by almost 4”. With the freezing temps at night, flood water may freeze making roads and walkways dangerous. Travel slowly and safely!

And please report flooding on iFlood.org.
