PURPOSE: Approve and authorize Snohomish County Executive to sign the intergovernmental services agreement between Snohomish County and Washington State University for a flood management governance and funding study.
BACKGROUND: In Snohomish County, flooding is a significant natural hazard. Floods impact individuals and communities, resulting in social, economic, and environmental consequences. Floods can result in loss of human life, damage to property, and destruction of agricultural products. General infrastructure such as utilities, roads, bridges, and communication technology can be damaged and disrupted. The County seeks to study the existing flood management structures in the county and recommend potential improvements to governance and funding of floodplain management. The Executive Office has assigned this project to the Surface Water Management Division of the Department of Conservation & Natural Resources. The County and WSU wish to establish a contractual relationship to conduct the flood management study identified herein.
