Summary of Request:
The goal of a long term community recovery planning process is for residents and community leaders to take a “big picture” look at what it will take to recover from disaster. When a community has been devastated by a disaster, community members can become so busy dealing with response to immediate needs and individual issues that it is difficult to consider potential opportunities to build back better. Staff will provide information about national and state level frameworks for long term community recovery, and will propose a local framework and process to link community recovery planning with countywide strategic planning.
A long term community recovery plan is important for local accountability and can be a vehicle to maximize funding opportunities for housing, infrastructure, economic development, and public services. In addition to leveraging funding that can emerge as disaster relief, countywide representation creates an opportunity to pursue and maximize countywide goals and strategies. The Board of Supervisors’ current goals and priorities are strongly tied to disaster recovery, including homelessness and housing, economic development, investments in infrastructure, emergency services, and fiscal stability and sustainability.
Over the next 90 days, staff will incorporate community and employee input processes through public meetings in each Board district and will specifically partner with the Redwood Valley Municipal Advisory Council for fire recovery planning processes. Building on the Leadership Initiative, the work of the leadership teams, and the 5 Functions of Leadership, the planning process will be community driven and will include:
• Community vision, needs and issue identification
• Employee input and issue analysis
• Board goal adoption and development
• Community and employee development of strategies and objectives
• Board adoption of a plan that documents goals, strategies and measurable objectives
Alternative Action/Motion:
Return to staff for alternate direction.
