Program details

How it works

The City of Salem’s Flood Zones page says that if a property qualifies, the Hazard Mitigation Assistance (HMA) Grant Program may provide grant funds to assist with flood mitigation. The page frames flood mitigation as actions that can reduce future damage to homes and other improved property, and says mitigation may also lower flood insurance premiums.

What the money covers

The official page does not list a project menu, dollar cap, reimbursement rules, or matching requirement. It only states that grant funds may be available to assist with flood mitigation.

Timing and deadlines

No application window, deadline, or open/closed status is stated on the page.

What a homeowner should know

The page emphasizes that properties in the City of Salem should be checked for floodplain status through the Department of Community Development and that other permits may be required before work begins. It also says a pre- and post-construction flood elevation survey will be required to document compliance for certain floodplain work.
