FLOOD-15
Partner with the National Weather Service to deliver robust multi-lingual education and outreach materials accessible across multiple media forms (e.g., radio, text messaging) to publicize information regarding potential day-to-day flood risk, how to sign up for the Sacramento Alert Emergency Notification System, emergency supplies, pet protection, key terminology, electrical safety, and evacuation routes in the case of flooding.
Invest resources and personnel to regularly update the Sacramento Ready webpage to include current information.
Benefits: Improving Sacramento County’s outreach and educational programs to be more accessible to non-English-speaking persons, residents living within floodplains, and disadvantaged communities would provide Sacramento County residents with real-time information of flood danger, as well as useful resources regarding steps to protect against human and property damage.
This measure will have co-benefits related to sea-level rise.
Timeframe: Near term
