COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA, AMENDING RESOLUTION NO. 06-200,
WHICH ESTABLISHED THE FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT
PLANNING COMMITTEE, BY REVISING SECTION ONE, "CREATION
AND PURPOSE OF THE FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT PLANNING

WHEREAS, Collier County is a voluntary participant in the Community Rating System
(CRS) Program of the National Flood Insurance Program. Because the County is rated as a
Class 7 or higher community within the CRS Program and there are more than ten properties in
the County that have filed multiple flood insurance claims within any ten -year period, thus
establishing them as Repetitive Loss Properties, the County is required to develop and maintain a
Floodplain Management Plan, the purpose of which is to promote awareness of floodplain and
flooding issues, identify known flood hazards, discuss past flooding events, assess the current
floodplain and flooding issues, and set goals along with a strategy to make the community more
resistant to flooding; and
WHEREAS, Collier County is currently rated as a Class 6 community in the CRS
Program, this provides up to a 20% discount on the premium rates charged to flood insurance
policy holders. As a Class 6 community, the County is required to annually provide a progress
report on the accomplishment of goals in the Floodplain Management Plan, which Plan must be
updated every five years; and
WHEREAS, on July 25, 2006, the Board of County Commissioners adopted Resolution
No. 2006 -200 which established the Floodplain Management Planning Committee to develop
and at least annually evaluate and update the Collier County Floodplain Management Plan; and
WHEREAS, on July 26, 2011, the Board of County Commissioners adopted Resolution
No. 2011 -118 which revised Section Two, "Committee Membership;" and
WHEREAS, the Board of County Commissioners desires to revise and expand the
responsibilities of the Floodplain Management Planning Committee.
