3 The Disaster Cycle Preparation Response Recovery Prepare Respond Recover
4 Mitigation Elevation Land use planning Building codes Infrastructure policy Acquisition
5 Acquisition (Buyouts) Early Projects Rapid City, SD 1400 homes after 1972 flood Soldiers Grove, WI Relocation of downtown in 1983 Valmeyer, IL (population ~900) Entire town relocated after 1993 floods in MW Since 1993 FEMA has purchased ~20,000 properties nationwide
6 Federal Grant Programs Hazard Mitigation Grant Program: 15-20% of federal disaster assistance funds can be used for mitigation, including home elevation and buyouts Community Development Block Grant: Disaster recovery funds, primarily to benefit low-income residents, can be used for buyouts, relocation, home repair, debris removal
7 HMGP: How it Works HMGP funds available after Presidential declaration Funds distributed through state government Requires 25% local matching funds Buyouts are voluntary Homeowners paid pre-flood fair market value After purchase, homes demolished or relocated Property precluded from future development
8 Advantages of Buyouts Saves money debris removal, evacuation, search and rescue, Provides permanent protection Serves multiple objectives risk reduction, open space, habitat, recreation Enhances natural buffers Protects private property rights
9 Disadvantages of Buyouts Expensive, particularly for coastal communities Time consuming Loss of tax base Neighborhood disruption Incomplete participation Cost of maintaining acquired properties
10 Making the Most of Floodplain Buyouts Funding: McKnight Foundation, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, New York Community Trust
11 Current Use and Case Studies Taking advantage of acquired properties??
