The Calvert County Department of Planning and Zoning is seeking input to identify flood hazards in Calvert County. Calvert County is updating its 2011 Flood Mitigation Plan to address rising sea levels and increased precipitation. These mitigation efforts can result in lower flood insurance rates for Calvert property owners.

By participating in this five-minute survey, you can help us identify areas of concern and shape the Calvert County Flood Mitigation Plan Update.

We share a heartfelt thank you to everyone who made the Home for the Holidays event a heartwarming success! None of this would have been possible without our partners, participants and all who came out to join us on Dec. 9.
