​Vermont Department of Health announcement

Did you know radon can cause lung cancer? Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that has no color, taste or smell. Radon enters your home through soil or water and can build up to inside your home. Radon is the leading cause of lung cancer among people who do not smoke. If you smoke and your home has high levels of radon, your risk of getting lung cancer is especially high.  

One in seven Vermont homes has elevated levels of radon. The Northeast Kingdom’s bedrock geology is associated with higher levels of radon, which means you could have high levels of radon in your home. How do you know if you do? Testing is the only way to know. Get your FREE test kit today by filling out this form: TinyURL.com/radon-kit.  

Learn more about radon in your home at www.HealthVermont.gov/radon.

Local Hazard Mitigation Plan Update Announcement

The Town of Guildhall is looking for the public’s assistance in identifying local hazards to aid in updating the Local Hazard Mitigation Plan (LHMP).
As mandated by the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000, all municipalities are required to complete a Local Hazard Mitigation Plan every 5 years in order to qualify for FEMA funding should a disaster occur.  The plan aids in identifying threats and hazards such as flooding, winter storms, power failures, pandemics, cyber-attacks etc. and then determine mitigation efforts that can aid municipalities in reducing risk and recovery from natural, technological, and human-caused hazards.

The Town of Guildhall has begun the plan update process and is looking for input from Guildhall residents to help identify hazards that impact your community. 
Residents and Property Owners are invited to download the attached
​> Guildhall Resident or Property Owner Hazard Mitigation Survey < 
and mail or scan/email their responses to
Town Clerk at [email protected] or
PO Box 10
Guildhall, VT 05905

(802) 676-3797
with any input or questions. 

The current Local Hazard Mitigation Plan can be examined at the town office or online at    https://www.guildhallvt.org/planning-commission.html.
