The LMS was formally adopted by Resolution of the Board of County <br />Commissioners on November 16, 1999. One of the approved projects was to seek funding for <br />retrofits to the county's public schools, which serve as public shelters, to reduce vulnerability to <br />winds and flood damage, thereby reducing the county's safe shelter deficit. <br />If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to call me. <br />Sincerely, <br />J <br />Douglas ight, Director <br />Chairman, LMS Working Group <br />cc: Nathan McCollum, Emcrgency Management Coordinator <br />Division of Division of Division of <br />Division of <br />Emergency Medical Animal Control Fire Services <br />Emergency Management <br />Services 567-8000 562.2028 <br />567.8000 <br />S67-8000 W. 446 <br />Ext. 444 <br />Ext. 217 <br />�.rr�.��� �env ,.�.a.n..• <br />
