Summary

Alexis said the citywide flood resilience plan will shift from public input to a toolkit-style framework; consultants will produce five prioritized, actionable concepts (geographic or policy) informed by recent public sessions.

Staff reported that the citywide flood resilience plan has completed public-input sessions and a steering-committee meeting and is moving into a toolkit-style phase. Alexis told commissioners the consultant team will document the gathered data and produce five prioritized concepts — either geographic pilot locations or policy changes — intended to be affordable and actionable for Norwalk.

The staff description emphasized that the plan's main output will be a set of prioritized actions and a toolkit for implementation rather than a single, highly prescriptive plan. No dates for final adoption were offered at the meeting; commissioners were given the expectation that the next work products will articulate prioritized implementation steps.
