<br />RECOMMENDATIONS <br /> <br />The following recommendations are included for consideration <br />in reducing potential flood damages: <br /> <br />1. Local units of government should update their flood <br />plain management or flood hazard mitigation plan and <br />incorporate the findings of this study. <br />2. Existing restrictions that contribute to overbank <br />flooding should be corrected where possible and when <br />possible. <br />3. Detai led studies of specific alternative <br />measures such as floodways or dikes should be <br />considered. The dike along the south bank of Plateau <br />Creek near Main Street should be strengthened and <br />maintained. A new dike along the north bank of <br />Plateau Creek from cross section 349 upstream about <br />250 feet would provide flood protection to one <br />additional residen,tial site. <br />4. Owners and occupants of bu i I dings and other property <br />within or adjacent to the del ineated flood boundry <br />should consider flood insurance. <br />5. Information and education programs on flood hazards <br />should be made avai lable to the publ ic. <br />q. The main channels should be maintained to preserve <br />a balance between native vegetation, conveyance <br />capacity, channel stabi I ity, and provide wi Idl ife <br />habitat. <br /> <br />16 <br />
