Understand Your Flood Problems History of Flooding Past Damages Flooding Characteristics Floodplains (FIRM maps) Past Projects

Establish Community Goals Community input –Surveys –Community meetings –Collect Data Agency coordination –FEMA, VDEM, DHCD, NRCS, DCR, etc. Political support

Choose the Right Mitigation Strategy Property Protection (elevations, relocations, buy-outs) Structural Projects (floodwalls, levees, dams) Emergency Services (warning systems, reverse-911) Public Awareness and Education Floodplain Management (NFIP, land use, ordinances)

Funding Success Seek Funding –FEMA (HMGP, PDM, FMA) –HUD (CDBG) –Other (COE, EDA, NRCS, DCR) Garner Political Support Secure Match

Successful Implementation Oversight committee and project team Project policies, prioritization, and timeframe Coordinate with state and federal officials Inform the community Set up a financial record-keeping system Procure services (appraiser, CM, etc.)

Successful Construction A 3rd Party, Independent Construction Manager is critical! Part of the team Focused on technical aspects Depoliticizes decisions

Successful Construction The goal of the project is to get people out of harm’s way.

Successful Construction Attract qualified contractors –Elevation contractors vs. general contractors –Risk vs. reward Older construction “Dirty” work Uncommon (current housing boom) –Alleviate fears of working with the government on private property

Successful Construction Construction documents –Expectations –Size of project –Architectural requirements / renderings –Specifications/details tailored to community –Code / building official approval –Allowable costs

Successful Construction Homeowner meetings 3-Party Agreements –Local government –Homeowner –Contractor
