Group between three partner departments formed in 2019 to investigate our debris management and plan for how the City manages debris long term. City Real Estate assisted with identification of sites at that time and resulted in 4 proposed sites, Thornton Rd, Old Battle Bridge Rd, Patriot Dr (rear of current Yard Waste Facility) and Tarheel Club Rd (Parks Site). Also, Hertz Dr site was discussed as an intermediate drop site and/or use for grinding debris. At this time sites have not been studied for impact to flood plain or for proper permitting by Solid Waste Services. Communities that participate in the Community Rating System (CRS) can receive credit points for going beyond those basic standards by developing a detailed, written plan for managing the susceptibility of buildings within their jurisdictions to substantial damage from floods and other hazardous events. Such a plan helps increase awareness of flood risk areas, identifies vulnerable structures and neighborhoods, and ensures that there is a strategy in place for making damage determinations and enforcing the substantial damage requirements if a flood occurs. In addition, the plan, and the process of producing it, fosters communication with residents and elected officials and helps develop long-term actions to mitigate properties and reduce future losses.
