Announcing a new training opportunity for municipalities working on local flood resilience!

This spring, the Hudson River Watershed Alliance and Pace University’s Land Use Law Center are bringing the award-winning Land Use Leadership Alliance (LULA) training program to municipalities that are Members of the Hudson Valley Flood Resilience Network.

This 3-day training teaches local leaders how to develop sound and balanced strategies to accomplish policy objectives and to carry them out effectively. The content for this training will focus specifically on land use, flood resilience, and climate change adaptation.

The Land Use Law Center will also provide participating municipalities with resilience assessments using the RISE Local Assessment Tool, developed by FEMA and EPA. The RISE assessment reviews a municipality's current zoning and comprehensive plan language. This LULA program will be particularly well-suited for municipalities that are interested in or are currently working on a Comprehensive Plan or Local Waterfront Revitalization Plan.

Is your municipality interested in participating? First, join the Hudson Valley Flood Resilience Network. Membership is free, and benefits include access to specific flood-related programs and training opportunities.

Once your municipality is a Member of the Flood Resilience Network, we will share the municipal application form to participate in the LULA training. The application process will help us identify a cohort of communities that are well-positioned to use the RISE Local Assessment Tool for this session.
