Dear Nelson County Board of Supervisors:
We the residents and landowners of Nelson County strongly encourage you to approve and adopt the proposed amendments to our Floodplain Ordinance that are now, or will shortly be, before you. We also want the Board of Supervisors to invite the Department of Conservation & Recreation to come to Nelson County to give a public flood plain workshop. Over the last five months, the Planning Commission has taken into consideration all of the ways that these amendments could affect the businesses and residents of Nelson County and have fine-tuned the language of the amendments to create a document they unanimously feel is in the best interest of Nelson County.
Among other benefits, these amendments would:
1. Give Nelson County the opportunity to lower floodplain insurance for its homeowners and business owners.
2. Prohibit Critical Facilities, Hazardous Materials & Non-Native fill in Special Flood Hazard Areas
Hurricane Camille left a permanent mark on our county, a mark that exists both on the land itself and in the hearts of its residents. On top of this history, Nelson has 6 out of the 8 "High Risk Flood Hazard Areas" defined by the American Society of Civil Engineers, including flash flooding, mudslides, erosion, alluvial fans, ice jams, and high velocity flows, making it even more imperative that our Board of Supervisors take prudent action to protect Nelson by adopting the amendments to our Floodplain Ordinance.
Thank you for your wisdom and service.
PLEASE NOTE: We are asking that ONLY Nelson County residents and property owners sign this petition.

I support the amendments to the floodplain ordinance and I urge the BOS to take the action and support these additional protections. Todd M. Rath Rockfish Valley Inn Blue Toad Hard Cider Resident Nelson County
Having owned a house where I had to purchase flood insurance, anything the county can do to lower premiums for citizens is essential. Please approve and adopt the proposed amendments to the Floodplain Ordinance.
I so well remember August 19, 1969. I was only eighteen but I remember it as if it were yesterday. I can only imgine the extra devastation which might have transpired had there been pipelines in place. This area is a fragile gem and needs to be treated accordingly.
It is vital that the Board of Supervisors approve this ordinance that the planning commission studied so thoroughly. I was at the Planning Commissions's public hearing and was very impressed with the amount of study and thought that was put into developing this ordinance. I urge you to protect the citizens of Nelson Co by adopting this ordinance.
Yes, please support the proposed amendments to our Ordinance and I would find the public flood plain workshop very helpful in this time of increasing incidents of weather change. It makes good business sense also.

The recent consulting soils and slope evaluations describing the inadequacy of the DEIS for the ACP clearly shows Nelson County mustv strengthen our Inland Wetlandsa regulations.

Dear County Board of supervisors. Please adopt this new floodplain ordinance. I live in Davis Creek and with the knowledge of what happenedwith Hurricane Camille, I feel it would be wise to take the Planning Commission' s recommendations. Respectfully, Marcia Gibbons
