Flood survey backs Manchester flood designation
Manchester officials, after reviewing a detailed map study by Anderson-Nichols, concluded the town’s flood prone designation is sound. Engineer W Byrd LaPrade reported HUD maps are representative and urged caution before final approval, while noting a 1930 War Department report suggested a flood insurance program. The town plans further input before HUD settles timelines and insurance rates, and will pursue zoning measures once actuarial rates begin.
