Town Submits Applications Requesting Funds to Help Combat Flooding and Stormwater Issues

The Town of North Beach submitted applications on January 31, 2022 requesting nearly $2 million in state funds to help combat the community’s recurring flood and stormwater issues. The applications were submitted to the Maryland Department of the Environment (MDE) and focused on three infrastructure improvements: building a new pump station at the intersection of 7th Street and Atlantic Avenue, upgrading the 9th Street pump station, and enhancing the rock embankment along the Atlantic Avenue shoreline. The grant submissions were a joint effort by the Department of Public Works, Town staff, and the Stormwater & Flood Mitigation Advisory Committee.
