D. PARKS AND WATER RESOURCES

BCC - Regular Board Meeting - 2nd Tuesday · 2026-04-14 · agenda_item

This item concerns a recommendation for approval to authorize the Chairman to sign letters of support. These letters will be sent to the County's federal legislative delegation and FEMA. The purpose of the letters is to advocate for the restoration of funding for the NFIP Community Rating System (CRS) program. This matter is currently under review, with a recommendation for approval. While this item does not directly involve construction or physical work, it advocates for a program that could lead to future projects or funding opportunities related to flood mitigation and community preparedness. Businesses involved in flood control, water management, and related consulting services may find future opportunities if this advocacy is successful. Early engagement with county officials and understanding the goals of the CRS program could position businesses to respond to future needs.
