Flood Mitigation Grant Opportunities

Do you experience repetitive flood loss at your property? There are a variety of grant opportunities that residents can apply for to acquire, floodproof, and elevate properties in flood hazard zones. Contact the Floodplain Team at 919-996-3777 or floodplain@raleighnc.gov to learn more about your options.

Benefits

Returning these areas to green space:

• Keeps residents safe;
• Allows the floodplain to function naturally; and,
• Reduces flooding impacts.

When structures are no longer in the floodplain - the water can fan out, slow down, and soak into ground more easily.

Projects

Funding for these projects comes from Raleigh's stormwater utility fee and FEMA's Hazard Mitigation Grant Program.
