BUDGET FUNCTION
The Flood and Erosion Control Board’s purpose is to review and recommend flood prevention, climate
resilience and erosion and sediment control measures implemented within the Town. The Board is
empowered by Town Ordinance 5.4.1 and Connecticut State Statutes Chapter 477.
The Flood and Erosion Control Board will continue to prioritize objectives and further projects regarding
erosion and sedimentation of waterways and surrounding resources. Board members are pursuing
training opportunities to enhance their knowledge base and technical skills.
In addition to regular meetings, the Flood and Erosion Control Board conducts field meetings with Town
staff to acquaint members with Alewife, Jordan, Keeney, Smith, and Goshen coves and to review areas
vulnerable to storm surges and increased tides identified in the Town’s “Climate Change Risk
Vulnerability, Risk Assessment and Adaptation Study (2017). The Board also submits comments and
recommendations to the Planning and Zoning Commission and Conservation Commission concerning
flood control and erosion and sediment control requirements on development proposals during the
course of the year. This budget proposal represents a 0% increase over the FY26 approved budget.
