    PTE/15/16 Cabinet 11 March 2015 Flood Risk Management Action Plan 2015/16 Report of the Head of Planning, Transportation and Environment Please note that the following recommendations are subject to consideration and determination by the Cabinet (and confirmation under the provisions of the Council's Constitution) before taking effect. Recommendation: It is recommended that Cabinet: (a) approves the implementation of the 2015/16 Action Plan by the County Council’s Flood Risk Management Team; (b) delegates to the Head of Planning, Transportation and Environment, in consultation with the Cabinet Member with responsibility for flooding, any changes to the programme and related expenditure of less than £50k. 1. Purpose The aim of this report is to provide Cabinet with an update on delivery of the 2014/15 Flood Risk Management Action Plan and gain approval for the implementation of the proposed Action Plan for 2015/16. A process, by which actions can be amended or reprioritised, subject to delivery opportunities, is also proposed. 2. Summary As a result of the widespread flooding experienced in Devon over recent years a prioritised programme of works has been developed. This has been prepared in accordance with the Local Flood Risk Management Strategy and where possible in partnership with other Risk Management Authorities. 3. Update on Achievements for 2014/15 As a result of the works delivered by Devon County Council and in some cases through partnership working with the Environment Agency and District Councils, up to 150 properties have been provided with improved flood protection this year, so reducing the risk of further internal flooding.
