Report: Recommendations for Municipalities, Flood Protection
This report addresses the health impacts of flooding and the disproportionate impacts of flooding on vulnerable populations. It makes several recommendations including that municipalities map flood prone areas in low-income communities, develop flood-specific emergency plans focused on equity, and create flood protection programs to assist with installation of backwater valves, green roofs, sump pumps and other infrastructure upgrades.
