Final Notice and Public Explanation of a Proposed Activity in a 100 Year Floodplain & Wetland

To: All interested Agencies, Groups and Individuals

This is to give notice that the City of Millbrook has conducted an evaluation as required by Executive Order(s) 11988 and 11990, in accordance with HUD regulations at 24 CFR 55.20 Subpart C Procedures for Making Determinations on Floodplain Management and Wetlands Protection. The activity is funded under ADECA’s CDBG Program Project No. LR-CE-PF-23-013.The proposed project(s) is located at addresses in City of Millbrook, Elmore County. The project is for demolition and/or clearance of approximately 15 dilapidated, and abandoned structures throughout the City of Millbrook. The details of the structures have not yet been identified or finalized, and if discovered that one or more of the structures are located in a floodplain or wetland area, the City has ensured that every precautionary measure will be taken. Again, the proposed project is located throughout the City of Millbrook in Elmore County, Alabama. The City of Millbrook has considered the following alternatives and mitigation measures to be taken to minimize adverse impacts and to restore and preserve natural and beneficial values: While specific properties are not yet determined, the City is taking this action as a cautionary measure so that it can remove slum and blight in all required areas of the City. The reason this action is being taken is that slum and blight creates increasingly dangerous conditions for City residents and/or visitors. The only alternative would be to take no action and not remove blighted structures in areas in a floodplain or wetland. The City will remain in compliance with state and local floodplain/wetland protection procedures as the project proceeds. City of Millbrook has reevaluated the alternative(s) to demolition in the 100 Year Floodplain & Wetland and has determined that it has no practicable alternative. Environmental files that document compliance with steps 3 through 6 of Choose an item., are available for public inspection, review and copying upon request at the times and location delineated in the last paragraph of this notice for receipt of comments. There are three primary purposes for this notice. First, people who may be affected by activities in a 100 Year Floodplain & Wetland and those who have an interest in the protection of the natural environment should be given an opportunity to express their concerns and provide information about these areas. Second, an adequate public notice program can be an important public educational tool. The dissemination of information and request for public comment about 100 Year Floodplain & Wetland can facilitate and enhance Federal efforts to reduce the risks and impacts associated with the occupancy and modification of these special areas. Third, as a matter of fairness, when the Federal government determines it will participate in actions taking place in 100 Year Floodplain & Wetland, it must inform those who may be put at greater or continued risk. Written comments must be received by the City of Millbrook at the following address on or before 04/24/2024:
