• Granby Updates Floodplain Rules For First Time Since 2008 (patch.com) — Granby has overhauled its floodplain regulations for the first time since 2008, with new rules taking effect October 1 that could affect construction and renovation plans in mapped flood-risk areas. Prompted by updated FEMA maps, the changes keep Granby compliant with the National Flood Insurance Program and may require some property owners to provide more detailed elevation information when seeking permits.
