Like other areas of eastern North Carolina, Pollocksville’s recovery from Hurricane Florence has been slow but steady. The town’s progress will take one step forward Sunday with a public input session at the town boat landing to allow residents to voice their opinions on the Pollocksville “Floodprint,” a flood mitigation and recovery plan being developed in conjunction with the NC State University Coastal Dynamics Design Lab (CDDL).
The “Floodprint plan brings CDDL architects, scientists, engineers, graphic designers, and environmental planners to the table with Pollocksville officials to reimagine future plans for Main Street and other areas of the town, where homes and businesses were devastated by flooding during the 2018 storm.
