CASS COUNTY <br />COMMISSION POLICY MANUAL 13.72 <br /> <br />SUBJECT: COUNTY SALES TAX FOR FLOOD RISK REDUCTION AND RECOVERY PROJECTS <br />ADOPTED DATE: DECEMBER 6, 2017 PAGE 3 OF 6 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Types of projects eligible for funding: <br /> <br />1. Levee construction or recertification for cities or rural subdivisions. Generally levee projects should be constructed to FEMA and/or US Army Corps of Engineer standards and be able to bring the benefited area out of the 1% chance (100 year) floodplain. These <br />levees would also need to be maintained at that standard by either the city or township <br />that is a member of the National Flood Insurance Program. Rural subdivisions seeking <br />this funding would need to complete an agreement with the township and form an <br />assessment district for the long term maintenance of the levee. <br />2. Flood control projects. <br />3. Water retention or detention projects. <br />4. Dam construction or maintenance. <br />5. Lift Stations for removing storm water from within a levee protected area. <br />6. Rural Farmstead Ring Levees (in conjunction with the ND State Water Commission 50% <br />cost share) as outlined on the ND State Water Commission website under “Cost Share” at <br />http://www.swc.state.nd.us/project_development/cost_share.html. Generally levee projects should be constructed to FEMA and/or US Army Corps of Engineer standards. However, individual rural farmsteads cannot be “certified” by FEMA or the US Army Corps of Engineers as they not maintained by either a city or township that is a member of the <br />National Flood Insurance Program. <br />7. Road Projects that provide infrastructure protection to prevent significant future flood <br />damage. These requests may be standalone projects or in conjunction with post-flood damage repair with or without FEMA cost share. <br />8. Road access (road raises or other infrastructure improvements that will allow access to a <br />city, subdivision, or rural residence/farmstead). <br />9. Embankment slumping along the Red River, Wild Rice River, Sheyenne River, Maple River, Rush and Lower Rush Rivers, and Legal Drains. River slumping projects may include road and infrastructure repair, home buyouts, and repair to legal drains. <br />10. Home buyouts for flooding and bank slumping. <br />11. Flood Recovery projects to include: Levee repair, road repair, bridge repair, and other infrastructure related repair projects. None infrastructure flood recovery such as debris removal and sandbag cleanup will not be eligible. <br /> <br />Cass County Sales Tax Cost Share: <br />
