Floodplain Management and Flood Information
Statement of Goals

- We are committed to work with the State and levee districts to strengthen levees;
- We are committed to pursuing certifications needed to protect our "preferred status" insurance rates;
- We recognize that flood protection is critical, and are committed to the hard work with many partners;
- While the State is primarily responsible, we know we must fight for levee funding and that local residents will likely have to share costs; and
- We will pursue these goals in an open and inclusive process.
