Dear Ms. Roberts,
Through my authority as Mayor, I am submitting this letter to you as documentation of
the City of Dubuque's decision to join the American Flood Coalition.
As a member of the American Flood Coalition we can apply the tools and resources
provided by the coalition to improve our communications with residents on flooding
challenges and solutions. There are also opportunities to use these resources in order to
advance projects and programs within our community. Lastly, our staff is looking forward
to using the expertise of the American Flood Coalition staff as a source of support in
developing responses to flooding and sea level rise.
I understand that there are no financial or legal ties or obligations to membership.
