<br />Ramsey County | Multi-Jurisdiction Hazard Mitigation Plan 89 <br />Action <br />Number Jurisdiction <br />Mitigation Action <br />Name <br />What is the problem <br />the action is solving? How does the action solve the problem? <br />Is this a <br />continuing <br />action from <br />2019 plan? Action Status <br />71 All <br />Enhanced Flood Risk <br />Mapping and <br />Vulnerable <br />Population <br />Assessment (EFRM- <br />VPA) <br />Current FEMA flood <br />maps may not <br />accurately reflect <br />actual floodplain <br />boundaries in Ramsey <br />County, potentially <br />leaving residents and <br />businesses <br />unprepared for <br />flooding events. <br />Additionally, <br />vulnerable <br />populations who are <br />more likely to be <br />impacted by flooding <br />are not identified, <br />which limits the <br />county’s ability to <br />provide targeted <br />support and resources <br />during flood events. <br />This action will update FEMA flood maps <br />to reflect current floodplain boundaries <br />and assess structures at risk of flooding. <br />Simultaneously, the project will map the <br />locations of vulnerable populations <br />within the flood-prone areas, such as <br />low-income, elderly, and disabled <br />residents, allowing the county to <br />prioritize resources and develop targeted <br />outreach and evacuation plans.
