Dutchess
Ave Sidewalk Replacement (completed May 15th)
Sidewalk on east side of Dutchess Ave was replaced and improved
in May. The sidewalk was made wider and curbing installed. Prior
to the replacement, there was no actual curbing and large sections
of the sidewalk were in terrible condition. This stretch of sidewalk
is a main conduit of foot traffic from parking spaces on Century
Blvd to main street.
Additional
Parking on South Center Street
Just down the street from the Community Center a parcel of land that
Dutchess County owns is being converted into additional parking. This
parcel has already been enhanced by the Village of Millerton Highway
Department to include direct access to the Hudson Valley Rail Trail.
One structure has been removed and the existing structure's fate has
yet to be determined. The timeline for completion is the middle of
June.

Hazards Mitigation
WHAT IS HAZARD MITIGATION?
Natural hazards have the potential to cause property damage, loss
of life, economic hardship, and threats to public health and safety.
Hazard mitigation measures are the things you do today to be more
protected in the future. They are measures taken before a disaster
happens to reduce the impact that future disasters will have on people
and property in the community. Mitigation reduces the risk of loss
and creates a more disaster-resistant and sustainable community. Hazard
mitigation measures are essential to breaking the typical disaster
cycle of damage, reconstruction, and repeated damage.
PURPOSE AND NEED FOR THE PLAN
Hazard mitigation plans are developed BEFORE a disaster strikes. The
plans identify community policies, actions, and tools for long-term
implementation to reduce risk and potential for future losses. Adopted,
implemented and maintained on an ongoing basis, these plans will gradually,
but steadily, lessen the impacts associated with hazard events. As
of November 1, 2004 communities without a FEMA-approved hazard mitigation
plan are not eligible for FEMA project grant monies under programs
such as the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP), Flood Mitigation
Assistance Program (FMA) and Pre- Disaster Mitigation Grant Program
(PDM).
