๐ข Attention residents and businesses affected by recent flooding:
The County, in coordination with the New York State Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Services, is conducting a preliminary damage assessment for the recent rainfall flooding. This assessment will provide crucial data to support a potential request for federal recovery assistance.
Please report any damages you have experienced by filling out the following online survey: NYS Damage Self-Reporting Tool: Homes & Businesses
We encourage you to share this survey with others impacted by the storm. If you are already using another damage report intake tool, please continue using it, but remember to report the results to Westchester County.
The survey is meant to collect information for federal assistance, not duplicate ongoing relief efforts. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated as we work together to secure additional support for our community.
Thank you for your understanding and participation.
