Flooding

​

I support a comprehensive, long term plan to improve storm water management infrastructure throughout the county and to make historic Ellicott City safer from flash flooding. I support the county partnering with FEMA and other federal agencies to take advantage of federal funds to indemnify residential and commercial building owners that are located in a flood zone and have suffered multiple floods.  

 

In historic Ellicott City, while a long term plan is implemented, I support dedicating county, state, and federal resources in a parallel plan to reinforce the success of existing shops and restaurants by keeping the town attractive and vibrant to visitors during inevitable impacts from construction involved with implementing improvements in storm water management systems.
