Flood Risk Program
Flood Risk = Financial Risk
Flooding isn’t just water — it’s a wallet wrecker.
Why it matters:
Floods slam property values, strain local budgets, and derail economies. Emergency response, infrastructure repairs, and lost tax revenue all add up fast. Flood risk is fiscal risk. Smart prevention safeguards lives and keeps local economies strong.
🧾 Fact: Flooding is one of the most frequent and costly U.S. disasters — and it’s getting worse as storms intensify and development grows in flood zones.
We’re investing now to save millions later.
Why it matters:
Every $1 in flood prevention can save up to $6 in recovery. That’s a return any CFO can get behind.
How we make it count:
• Avoided losses: Mitigation pays for itself
• Insurance stability: Lower risk = lower premiums
• Community resilience: Faster recovery, stable tax base
🛡️ This is not about barriers. It’s about building fiscal resilience.
Focused action. Measurable outcomes.
• Smarter risk insight: Mapping data to forecast impact
• Risk-aware land use: Aligning zoning with flood realities
• Targeted mitigation: Nature + infrastructure = cost-effective protection
• Funding leverage: Stretching dollars with local, state + federal partnerships
✅ Less reaction. More protection.
