The Northern Rivers Reconstruction Corporation has organised an information session for the Resilient Homes Program in Maclean on Tuesday, 22 November at 2.30pm at Maclean Bowling Club.

The Resilient Homes Program provides financial assistance to homeowners to improve the flood-resilience of residential properties in the Northern Rivers, offering one of three available measures based on expert property assessments, flood impact severity data, safety risks and potential future flood levels:
• Home buybacks – the homeowner receives a payment for the purchase of their house and land; or
• Home raising – funding is committed to elevate liveable areas above a property-specific flood level; or
• Home retrofit – funding is committed to retrofit and/or repair liveable areas to improve the resilience of these areas for future floods.
These investments will be complemented by the Resilient Land Program.
