<br />and collects dust?"
<br />
<br />Your plan won't work unless you can imple-
<br />ment it effectively. This section suggests ways
<br />to do just that-to translate your goals and
<br />objectives into action. The first two suggestions
<br />are key to organizing and implementing your
<br />plan. Suggestions three through six are also
<br />important. but represent methods to help you
<br />fulfill the components of one and two.
<br />
<br />Suggestion No. 1 Identify
<br />actions which address your
<br />community's issues, goals and
<br />alternatives (see Table 4)
<br />
<br />Using the fonnat from Table 4, identify actions
<br />which address specific issues and fulfill your
<br />goals and alternatives. For ex.ample, say your
<br />community has a number of downtown busi-
<br />nesses along the river which suffer damages
<br />from repeated flooding-this is your issue.
<br />
<br />Your goals to address this issue are:
<br />
<br />.I Promote downtown revitalization.
<br />
<br />./ Create self-sustaining businesses which
<br />will withstand future flooding without
<br />damage.
<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />The alternatives which you have identified
<br />include:
<br />
<br />./ Create a historic district to preserve the
<br />downtown area and maintain economic
<br />viability and.
<br />
<br />./ Use outside funding to floodproof the
<br />businesses to withstand future flood
<br />damages.
<br />
<br />Finally, you will identify the actions to
<br />execute these goals and alternatives which are:
<br />
<br />./ Seek national historic (NHS) designation
<br />for the buildings
<br />
<br />./ Seek federal funds assistance to floodproof
<br />the businesses
<br />
<br />./ Promote downtown
<br />revitalization.
<br />
<br />
<br />Create self-sustaining
<br />busi 55e5 which will
<br />nd future flooding
<br />out damage.
