Town of Ayer Community Resilience Building Survey

The Town of Ayer is participating in the State’s Municipal Vulnerability Preparedness (MVP) program. The MVP planning process is based in an accessible, community-driven process that seeks to foster partnerships and mainstream information and understanding of climate change projections and potential impacts. The process is guided by a core group of stakeholders who help inform and guide the study from the project kick-off to the completion of the work. Ayer community members gathered on January 9th and 16th to participate in a Community Resilience Building Workshop (CRB). This web-based survey provides a chance for community members who could not participate in the workshops to voice their views on climate related hazards, vulnerabilities and strengths, and actions the Town might take to become more resilient. Thank you for taking the time to complete this short survey. Your input will be collected and inform the production of a Summary of Findings report that will be released this spring.
