Purpose

An update to the local flood risk management
strategy

Content

This draft Strategy updated the
Buckinghamshire Council (BC) Local Flood Risk Management Strategy
(2017-2022), which was adopted under the legacy Buckinghamshire
County Council. The Strategy (Appendix 1) had been developed in
collaboration with all relevant internal services and external
partners, and set out the Council’s understanding of flood
risk, the Council’s objectives and how they would be
monitored and reviewed. The accompanying Action Plan (Appendix 2)
described the specific measures which would be undertaken. These
objectives encompassed and built on the principles of the previous
Local Flood Risk Management Strategy and reflected the changes in
national strategy by focussing on themes of partnership, resilience
and innovation.
 
RESOLVED that the Local Flood Risk Management Strategy be
AGREED.
