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 />1 <br />Douglas ight, Director <br />Chairman, LMS Working Group <br />cc: Nathan McCollum, Emergency Management Coordinator <br />Division of Division of Division of Division of <br />Emergency Medical Animal Control Eire Service's Emergency Managr menr <br />cervices 567.9000 <br />567-8000 Ext. 446 562-2428 56i•8000 <br />Ext. 444 <br />Ext. 717 FAX f560 567.9323 <br />SUNCC)M 224-1444 <br />
