Have your say on plans to boost resilience to flooding in West Sussex
An important consultation has begun on the County Council’s new Local Flood Risk Management Strategy - a plan on how we reduce flood risk across the county. It’s the second strategy drawn up for West Sussex since we became the lead flood authority, and follows a year where parts of the South East have experienced severe weather events including torrential rain and severe downpours.
The deadline for responses to the public consultation is Wednesday, 30 September.
