<br />resolution. In addition, a deed restriction will be placed on the property to assure that <br />open space will be the use of the property in perpetuity. <br /> <br />Structural Flood Hazard Miti!mtion <br /> <br />Retrofitting of Floodprone Buildings <br /> <br />Floodville plans to replace all conventional ground level windows in downtown residences <br />and businesses with 4 inch glass blocks. Doorway entrances to lower floors will be <br />protected by concrete block f100dwalls one foot higher than the base flood elevation at <br />each location. These entrances will require persons to step up before descending. <br /> <br />Floodville seeks $ in MAP funding to implement the structural and non-structural <br />flood hazard mitigation measures described above. Upon receipt of full funding, <br />completion of all activities except increasing the flood insurance policy base will be <br />accomplished in 18 months. <br /> <br />6. Coordination <br /> <br />A. Why Coordinate? <br /> <br />Experience has shown that mitigation plans get implemented when flood concerns are <br />allied with other community needs and goals and other agency's programs. Coordination insures <br />that mitigation activites do not conflict with others' plans for an area. Coordination also <br />facilitates the sharing of limited funds and resources to accomplish goals in the plan. There are <br />usually citizens who want more and better parks in the community. Such funding programs for <br />these activities might be used to pick up the cost of acquiring f1oodprone structures in a <br />community's flood hazard areas when parks are proposed for these areas. Coordination also helps <br />maintain waning interest in projects that may take a long time to accomplish. Lastly, funding <br />programs may require applicants to have their programs coordinated with other agencies. Often <br />other sources of funding must be exhausted before other program funding can "kick in". Both <br />of these needs can be met through coordination among all parties, <br /> <br />14 <br />
