HARRISON — Harrison has three ordinance questions for residents to vote on in its Nov. 3 local election ballot.

Question 2: Shall an ordinance entitled “Harrison Floodplain Management Ordinance for the Town of Harrison” be adopted?
The floodplain management ordinance allows Harrison property owners to participate in the National Flood Insurance Program. It also outlines the permitting process for property owners seeking to build structures in the flood zone.

The building permit ordinance has several provisions. It clarifies sideline setback allowances for property lines.
