Bill overview
This bill establishes a pilot program to improve urban flood mapping and empower homeowners and local governments. The program will provide grants to local governments and stormwater authorities to develop and implement technology-based mapping tools for assessing and mitigating urban flooding risks. It aims to increase the availability of flood data to the public and prioritize funding for vulnerable communities, particularly those facing sea-level rise or significant socioeconomic challenges. The program will also require recipients to report on their activities and provide recommendations for future flood mitigation strategies.
