<br />In the County Capability Assessment matrix, a "C" means the County provides the service, and <br />an "IP" means In Progress. Blank boxes or N/ A means the information was either unknown or <br />unavailable. <br /> <br />County Recommendations <br />The final section of each County Planning Element puts forth the Recommended Actions of the <br />County Planning Team. Each recommendation is resented in a similar format: <br /> <br />Action Item: A brief statement of what is needed <br /> <br />Issue Statement: An explanation of why the Recommended Action is important <br /> <br />Implementation Manager and Strategy: Identifies what person, position, department or <br />agency has the initial lead responsibility for implementation. This could include a range of <br />activities from identifying and applying for appropriate grants, to gathering the technical data <br />needed for project development, or simply extending an invitation for Technical Assistance. <br /> <br />Priority: A general statement of relative degree of importance, usually from a range of high, <br />medium and low. The assignment of priorities changes from action to action and could be based <br />upon the potential impact if the Action is not taken, pressing regulatory requirements, ease of <br />implementation, potential availability of funding, or any combination of these factors. There is <br />little or no inferred priority based upon the order in which the Recommended Actions are <br />resented in the plan, beyond the goal of having each county become "Storm Ready" certified by <br />the National Weather Service within the next three years. This is the highest priority for those <br />counties not already certified. <br /> <br />Cost Estimate: Where costs are known, they are presented. Potential sources of funding and/or <br />local matches are also identified when known or considered. <br /> <br />Cost-Effectiveness Explanation: A statement of why the Planning Team believes these <br />Recommended Actions would be cost-effective to pursue. In most cases, this s a generic <br />description, as it is fully expected that any project being seriously considered for implementation <br />will need to detail project costs and benefits, and due to the scope of this plan, and the constant <br />fluctuation in project costs and values that help determine benefits, a detailed analysis is not <br />worthwhile at this point in the planning process. <br /> <br />53 <br />
