The State Emergency Service and Kentish Council are\npartnering to deliver a Community Flood Planning Pilot Project for the\ncommunity of Railton. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
As part of the Project, a Community Flood Guide will be\ndeveloped for the town of Railton to provide the community with accessible,\nunderstandable, and accurate information on flooding risks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cTo ensure residents in the Railton area have the right\ninformation to make informed decisions regarding flooding, we\u2019re producing a\nCommunity Flood Guide for Railton,\u201d said Director of SES Andrew Lea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt\u2019s important for us to ensure the Flood Guide will\nprovide the right information to the community to allow people to make informed\ndecisions to help keep themselves, their family and their friends safe before,\nduring and after a flood.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
As part of the development of the Flood Guide, input is\nbeing sought from the Railton community to allow people to share their\nknowledge of the flood risks in their town.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI encourage people in the Railton area to attend the\nCommunity Meeting in Railton this Thursday to discuss flood risk and seek\nadvice on how to write a Home Emergency Plan with members from the SES.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
SES members will be at the Community Meeting at Kings Hall\nin Railton on Thursday 27 February at 7pm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
