methods that will be used to gather stakeholders together for this collaboration process;
necessary steps that will be needed in order to provide relocation services for flooding victims;
how business continuity will occur for 7-10 days after the event,15-30 days after the event, and 45 days after the event;
and individuals who will be instrumental in working alongside community members regarding the Geographical Information System (GIS), which, as you recall, can be used in mapping and visualizing the vulnerabilities within your community.
