Mayor Jerry Linke <br /> Page 2 <br /> 3. Mr.Harrington indicated that he could provide us with the information <br /> relating to the issuance of the permit for the Harstad subdivision. In addition, <br /> we would like any information about the background of the Landmark Estates <br /> development,as it relates to the adjacent floodplain. We would appreciate <br /> this information by the end of January, 1994. <br /> 4. Because the city is already very pro-active in floodplain management we <br /> would like to advise you of a fairly new federal program--the Community <br /> Rating System (CRS). Administered through FEMA, the CRS program is <br /> designed to reward communities that are doing more than meeting the <br /> minimum floodplain management by providing discounts on flood insurance <br /> premium rates (from 5% to 45% depending on the kind and degree of- <br /> additional floodplain management activities that a community undertakes). <br /> We provided Mr. Harrington with some information to determine if your <br /> current program would automatically qualify Mounds View for the 5% <br /> discount. <br /> In closing, the City is commended for the excellent job of floodplain management <br /> and ordinance implementation. Should you have any questions relating to routine <br /> floodplain management they should be directed to Ms. Shodeen at (612) 772-7910. <br /> If you or your staff have any questions regarding this assessment please contact Judy <br /> Boudreau at (612) 296-9224. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> .5(4:t <br /> Og azghi mm, Supervisor <br /> Land Use Unit <br /> OS/JB <br /> cc: Paul Harrington, City Planner(with attachments) <br /> Molly Shodeen,Area Hydrologist <br /> Dale Homuth,Regional Hydrologist <br /> Jeanne Kern, FEMA <br />
