The LMS was formally adopted by Resolution of the Hoard 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 />Douglas ght, Director <br />Chairman, LMS Working Group <br />cc: Nathan McCollum, Emergency Management Coordinator <br />DiViS on of Division of Division of Division of <br />Eomedical Animal Conlml i ire Seances rmergenq Managcmot <br />5eroces 567-8000 562.21428 567.8000 <br />567.5000 Ext. 446 W. 444 <br />fxt. 211 223- ISSS <br />SFAX (5611 567-9321 <br />1J Nf"4)41 <br />
