When coordination of plans is absent, a community may not be treating hazards as a planning priority
Overall Concept
Project Approach
DEVELOPMENT PHASE
– Inventory potential flood risk models, tools and methods
– Identify planning opportunities (“Points of Intervention”)
– Develop preliminary integration strategy
– Identify 2 local partners: San Luis Obispo County, CA and Brevard County, FL
IMPLEMENTATION PHASE
– Demonstrate implementation
– Assess implementation
– Finalize integration strategy
OUTREACH PHASE
– Develop and execute outreach plan
– Release final integration guidance
– Develop feedback for model and tool developers

This project is about integrating the resources that are out there into existing local planning processes and connecting those processes together
Project Goal
How overwhelmed are you by the number of online resources currently available?
How difficult is it for you to stay current on the latest updates and new releases?

If you were being offered resources for disaster loss reduction, at what point in the planning process would you incorporate that into your next plan update (whatever that may be)?
How are you going to communicate that to colleagues?
Building Relationships and Establishing a Process
Held a series of conference call/WebEx sessions to discuss local plans
– Goals for upcoming plan updates
– What did they want to expand, enhance, improve, etc.
– Opportunities for discussion, collaboration and knowledge sharing
Scheduled a local workshop for local officials and stakeholders
– San Luis Obispo, CA
– Brevard County, FL
Developed a tailored 1-day workshop agenda for participants
