DRAFT Flood Management/Mitigation Plan

 Public Comment Period
City of Belvedere DRAFT Flood
Management/Mitigation Plan
In the past, the City has been faced with flooding and drainage problems that have flooded buildings and resulted in significant economic impacts. The City developed a Flood Mitigation Plan consistent with the federally prescribed planning process for the development of the Plan. Through the goals of the Plan, the City seeks to maintain and enhance a disaster resistant community by reducing the potential loss of life, property damage, and environmental degradation from floods, while accelerating economic recovery from those floods.
The Plan will be adopted as an Appendix to the City's General Plan Environmental Hazards: Safety and Stability Element and will be submitted to FEMA for adoption. The document linked here is a DRAFT Flood Management Plan set out for public review prior to scheduled adoption by the City Council at their February meeting. The Plan will be reviewed by the City's Citizens' Flood Zone Committee and by the City's Planning Commission prior to submission to the City Council for adoption at their March City Council meeting.
In addition, the City is asking that members of the community complete a Flood Damage Survey. The Survey will assist the City in their efforts to work FEMA through their Cooperative Technical Partner process.
If you have comments regarding the Plan, feel free to attend one of the public meetings and/or send your comments to City Manager George Rodericks at grodericks@cityofbelvedere.org.
