Collaborating for Funding and Policy Improvements

The Funding & Policy Action Group serves as the go-to convenor for floodplain funding and policy efforts across the state and to leverage current momentum for integrated floodplain management into innovative approaches that can better position partners for funding, address barriers to implementation, and improve coordination across all levels of government.

The F&PAG works to:

  • foster trust, collaboration and partnership across state and federal agency efforts
  • support advocacy for the state capital grant program and increased ease in synergistic funding sources
  • provide clarity on funding programs and project competitiveness
  • and facilitate policy change to address local concerns through legislation, advocacy and partnerships.

“This proposal has much for agriculture to cheer. It specifically carves out a place for farmers to be involved in designing and implementing flood management projects and supports their time and efforts to do so. We believe that restoring habitat and managing flood risks on our land are fully compatible goals.”
