Challenges in 2013• Changing public perception
– No immediate response to non-life threatening situations
– No “blue tarp” teams– Debris removal delays– Stress “Whole Community” concept in Strategic
Planning– Stress importance of Flood Insurance
Challenges in 2013Challenges in 2013• The general public must be able to function
5 – 7 days without government assistance.
• Complacency – No significant event in several years.
