remapping of the Flood
Insurance
Study for the Town to reflect
current conditions.

7. Participate in ongoing or new
Watershed Studies and
programs for major tributaries
(Little Snake Creek and
Snake Creek).
8. Utilize local Soil and Water
Conservation Districts
program for possible stream
stabilization projects.
9. Develop model ordinance for
sediment and erosion
control, stormwater control, and
stream buffer
implementation.
10. Identify, evaluate, and
implement effective flood
mitigation activities for specific
chronic flooding locations.
11. Encourage development of
acquisition and management
strategies to preserve open
space for flood mitigation
and water quality in the
floodplain.
12. Conduct a mailing
campaign to property/business
owners in the 100-year and

Require mitigation to insure
“zero increase” in base flood
elevations.
14. Ensure that adequate
shelter is available to
community
residents in the event of future

changes to promote future
development to areas of town
outside of the floodplain.
18. Evaluate the benefits and
costs of obtaining flood
insurance for public buildings at
highest risk.
19. Perform an engineering
study to mitigate Stenson &
Fallbrook Road erosion and
wash-out problems.
20. Develop a plan to alleviate
the Schnurbush Park
