The municipality of Coulon is calling on its residents to report potential damage caused by drought to their homes and outbuildings.

The municipality of Coulon wishes to gather the necessary information to submit a file to the State to obtain recognition of natural disaster status following drought episodes.
These climatic phenomena can cause ground movements, leading to the appearance of cracks, fissures, deformations, or other damage to residential buildings and their outbuildings.
Residents who have observed such damage to their property, and suspect a link to the drought, are invited to contact the town hall. It is important to report this damage, even if it seems minor, to allow the municipality to compile as comprehensive an inventory as possible for its file.
To facilitate this census, the town hall asks property owners to provide by mail or email to accueil@ville-coulon.fr: their contact details, the address of the property concerned, a description of the damage observed, the period when the first damages appeared, as well as photographs illustrating the cracks or deteriorations.
It is reminded that this damage census does not guarantee the recognition of natural disaster status, a decision that falls under the responsibility of the State services.
