Inclusion in CFRAMs maps means some householders can't now get insurance.
It could take up to 6 years to complete Athy flood relief works.
They are being conducted under the CFRAMS, Catchment Flood Risk Assessment and Management, scheme.
They are designed to reduce the possibility of flooding in parts of the town and its hinterland, most notably along the River Barrow.
The works are already underway.
Labour Cllr., Mark Leigh, has been speaking to Kildare Today.
He says, however, that inclusion in CFRAMs maps means some householders can't now get insurance.
Cllr. Leigh joined Eoin Betty on Tuesday's edition of the programme on his motions before the Athy MD monthly meeting
