Judy will highlight the Riverbend Levee Setback and Floodplain Restoration project and the complex challenges it presented with relocating 90 families\, half of whom were non-English speakers. This project was a huge endeavor\, but ultimately ensured that the County not only help get people out of harm’s way\, but that they were treated fairly and equitably in the process.\nJudy will highlight the process\, the partners and people involved\, how it was informed by data\, and the lessons learned\, which has helped create an approach to large scale acquisitions and relocations that didn’t exist for the County prior to this project. Judy will also highlight a post project survey and report conducted by the relocation consultant\, in which the residents reported being in a better situation\, with a nicer home\, and in less debt.\nThis discussion will be full of insights and tips for how to thoughtfully plan for and implement acquisitions and relocations with at-risk communities\, and we welcome members throughout the FbD network to join us and share their efforts and insights with similar projects.\nThis discussion builds off of the 4-part Acquisition and Buyouts series we hosted in the summer of 2024\, links to which can be found here for those interested in additional resources:\n 1.\nFlood Risk: A Need for Acquisitions and Buyouts\n 2.\nCrafting and Funding a Local Acquisition/Buyout Strategy\n 3.\nImplementing a Local Acquisition/Buyout Strategy\n 4.\nExploring the Creative Roles States Are Playing to Get People out of Harm’s Way\nWhile we update the specific details of the Lunch & Learn sessions monthly\, the topics are informed by feedback from the Floodplains by Design network of practitioners and partners.\nAs always\, we welcome feedback and ideas for upcoming topics so please don’t hesitate to reach out to myself (Allan Warren awarren@b-e-f.org)\, Carol MacIlroy (cmacilroy@gmail.com)\, Lisa Nelson\, (lnel461@ecy.wa.gov) or Matt Gerlach\, (mger461@ecy.wa.gov).\nZoom Link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/2125469094\nPasscode: 1234 URL:https://floodplainsbydesign.org/event/fbd-lunch-learn-series-topics-updated-monthly-6/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250917T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250917T105000 DTSTAMP:20250917T024514Z CREATED:20250521T172354Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250917T024514Z UID:371920-1758103200-1758106200@floodplainsbydesign.org SUMMARY:Permitting Coordination Bi-Weekly Check-In DESCRIPTION:There are pulses of activity and different forums where permitting efforts are taking place\, making it challenging for people to track and engage effectively.
