2. Floodplain Management Planning Web Site/Collier TV Show (Lisa KoeWer) (10 minutes)-

will connect the viewer. New information will be added related to the COMMITTEE
activities. The Collier Government TV will be scheduling the preparation of programming to
address the COMMITTEE. The initial discussion involved scheduling a "shoot" for Dec. 15,
2006, and Mr. Bruno indicated an interest in participating. Subsequent discussion centered
more on the initial presentations being more along the lines of Public Service
Announcements, including information already available through FEMA. Initial information
announcements should address making the community aware of the upcoming information-
gathering community meetings. Initial airings should begin shortly after Christmas.
