Hampton Residents Respond to Survey on Flood Risk Mitigation Options

The Town of Hampton, working with the NHDES Coastal Program and the Rockingham Planning Commission, has completed a survey to assess local interest in a voluntary program for home elevation and property acquisition. This program is designed to help residents elevate their homes or acquire properties to reduce flood risks.

The survey focused on census block groups in Hampton that are most at risk of flooding, including areas like Little Boar’s Head. The aim was to collect feedback from those who would benefit most from the program.

A total of 224 residents participated in the survey, providing over 9,000 responses and 252 comments. This level of participation indicates strong community interest in addressing flood risks and exploring mitigation options.
