DCC needs to urgently make the Property Flood Resilience Repair Grant (PFRRG) available to residents impacted by storm Babet. It is not acceptable that applications will not be available until end of Jan/early Feb. The application process needs to be open NOW with funds swiftly approved by the end of January.
Why is this important?
This is crucial to allow residents to make decisions on protecting their homes from further flood risk in conjunction with their insurance process. Flood warnings continue across the county, we need action NOW to help protect our homes. Funds have already been available, the council is simply being slow to act. Please help us to push them to act faster!
