To participate in the NFIP, communities must: 1. Adopt a Floodplain Management Ordinance for regulation of development in the floodplain. 2. Adopt a Resolution for Participation in the NFIP 3. Complete an Application for Participation form. 2 Communities join the NFIP to: • Obtain federally-backed loans from banks for structures located in the floodplain • Provide some measure of protection for new and substantially improved development in the floodplain • Ensure disaster assistance is available to the community and individuals • Reduce community’s vulnerability to damage from flooding events 3 • Base Flood - The NFIP regulatory flood for floodplain management (defined as the flood that has a 1% chance of being equaled or exceeded in any given year) • Base Flood Elevation (BFE) - Water surface elevation resulting from the Base Flood event that is tied to a known vertical datum • Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) - Areas subject to the 1% - or greater - annual chance of flooding in any given year (the “100-year” floodplain) • Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) - The official map of a community on which FEMA has defined Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHAs), Base Flood Elevations (BFEs), and risk zones applicable to the community • Development - Any man-made change to improved or unimproved real estate, including but not limited to buildings or other structures, mining, dredging, filling, grading, paving, excavation, drilling operations or storage of equipment or materials. 4 • Community: - A political entity that has the authority to adopt and enforce floodplain ordinances for the area under its jurisdiction • Note that a city, town, village, Indian tribe, or authorized tribal organization is a separate community from the county in which it resides; each must participate in the NFIP individually • Structure: - A walled and roofed building, including a gas or liquid storage tank, that is principally above ground, as well as a manufactured home. 5 As a participant in the NFIP, communities agree to: • Adopt and enforce all applicable NFIP regulations • Require permits for ALL development in the SFHA • Require that new and substantially improved/damaged structures be elevated to or above the base flood elevation (non- residential structures can be dry-floodproofed) • Obtain proof of compliance with local floodplain management ordinances for all new structures 6 1.

Other very important duties include: • Determining substantial improvements • Determining substantial damage Substantial damage evaluations after a flooding event work to break the cycle of flood, rebuild, repeat. 8 The formula: Cost to repair (back to a pre-damaged condition) = % damage Market value of the building (prior to the damage) • Cost of repair: “True” cost of labor and materials to restore the building to its pre-damaged condition (even if owner does not want to make repairs) • Potential sources: Itemized estimates from licensed contractors • Market value: What a willing buyer would pay for the building. • Potential sources: Independent appraisal • Market value for taxing purposes 9 SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE ESTIMATOR (SDE) 3.0 SOFTWARE 10  ICC coverage comes standard with NFIP flood policies  The purpose is to add coverage to pay for the increased cost to rebuild or otherwise alter flood-damaged structures to conform with the City’s Ordinance  Principal ICC features: • The maximum benefit for ICC is $30,000 • Only flood damaged structures are eligible • Only structures located in the SFHA or regulated areas are eligible • Only those structures substantially damaged or repetitively damaged by floods are eligible • ICC maximum is limited to the amount necessary to meet the local or state requirements 11 Eligible ICC activities are: • Floodproofing (non-residential only) • Relocation • Elevation • Demolition A.K.A. “F.R.E.D.” ICC exceptions: • Policies in Emergency Phase communities, • Structures insured under Group Flood Insurance Policy, and • Units insured under a Condo Unit Owner Policy. 12 13 Any development in the SFHA will require a floodplain development permit. • Review the community’s FIRMs to determine if the proposed project is located within the SFHA. Project Location 14 If development is located within the SFHA, is it also located within a FEMA regulatory floodway? Project Location 15 If the project is located in a regulatory floodway, it must be demonstrated through hydrologic and hydraulic analyses that the proposed development will not result in ANY increase in the flood levels during the occurrence of the base flood discharge. Project Location 16 • “No-Rise” certification is required for all proposed development in the regulatory floodway. • “No-Rise” certification must be obtained by the community before the floodplain development permit may be issued. • “No-Rise” certification must be completed (signed and sealed) by a registered Missouri professional engineer. 17 18 19 20  County: ST.

Setting and achieving goals is an essential element of any strategic plan. I believe there are TWO kinds of Goals for you to consider for the city. The FIRST are the "Hard", Rational, Tangible Goals, such as, for example: Fostering new development Increasing the tax base Reversing the decline of our black population But, tonight, I'd like to focus your attention on the SECOND kind, which are the "Soft", Emotional, Intangible Goals, which can be just as big and imperative. Here are three such goals I believe are needed most in our city and all are linked together. 1. Restoring Trust. As I have said before, communities move forward at the speed of trust. No trust, no progress. I believe that trust has been damaged to a degree within City Hall and between City Hall and our community but that can definitely be restored with effort and commitment. 2. Reclaiming the Values & Character of Our Community. Our personal character is defined by our values. Same is true of our community, with 1  values such as honesty, kindness and empathy. But in recent years, our community seems to have lost its way to a degree. You already have a good start, as diversity, equity and inclusion are more than just anti‐racist concepts. They are core human values. My suggestion is that it would be time very well spent if you learned, adopted and practiced the "Leadership by Values" model. 3. Keeping the Peace. In the over 20 years I have been a resident, our city has lived through its share of difficult controversies and deep divisions, sometimes turning dishonest, ugly and negative and bringing out the worst in us. Differences of opinion should be welcomed but, sooner or later, opposing sides have to come together to create win‐win solutions versus win‐lose and worse yet, lose‐lose. It's called the Peace Process. I believe Council should remain neutral in such matters but has a fundamental responsibility to step up and be the Peacemakers who lead the Peace Process. 4. Finally, before your strategic planning starts looking ahead, I hope you first look back and make an honest and fair evaluation of your performance against the 7 Council Goals set four years ago, dated 2018‐19. What grade do you give yourselves on each goal and WHY? What have you learned? What can you do differently or better in the future? Thank YOU! 2  RESOLUTION #2022-42 ADOPTING THE 2020-2025 ST.
