North Andover is currently completing a standard update of the Town’s Hazard Mitigation Plan. As part of this process, the Town is looking to gather community feedback on the impacts of natural hazards.

All responses will be compiled and used by the North Andover Hazard Mitigation Planning team to assess risk and improve resiliency to natural hazards.
If you would prefer to complete a hard copy of this survey, they are available at Town Hall, Stevens Memorial Library, and North Andover Senior Center.
