David,
Here
is a copy of the goals I have for Summerset per your email. FEMA requires
the first goal. Please change or add anything you want to the
information. I did not know the priority on the drainage problems, so choose
if you want them to be a high priority or medium. Please also check the
description of the problem. We want to leave it vague enough that your council
has flexibility should you choose to apply for a grant through this program.
If
you have any questions my numbers are at the bottom of the email.
