King County Flood Hazard Management Plan Update Citizens Committee
The Citizens Committee was established to serve as a "sounding board at key milestones" during the flood plan update. Members were identified by the King County Flood Control District Board of Supervisors and include floodplain property owners as well as professionals in the field of floodplain management. A committee members' role is limited to advising on matters that directly concern the plan update. The committee is scheduled to meet eight times before July 2012. (See Motion FCD11-04.1.)
