The town of Mortagne-sur-Sèvre was officially classified as a state of natural disaster for floods and mudslides that occurred at the beginning of the year.
Critical periods identified
The disasters concerned occurred during two specific periods: from January 3 to 4, 2024 and from February 22 to 23, 2024. These episodes of severe weather caused significant damage to the municipality, thus justifying this official recognition.
Procedure for disaster victims
Residents and businesses affected by these events have thirty working days from December 21, 2024 to submit to their insurance company an estimated declaration of the damage suffered. This step is essential to trigger the support and compensation provided as part of this recognition.
An expected recognition
This decision provides crucial support to victims, helping to speed up the repair of damaged property. Local authorities remain mobilized to support the process and ensure a return to normal as soon as possible.
