Mission
Statement
As the Lead Local Flood Authority,
Lincolnshire County Council seeks to represent all areas of the
county on the Flood and Water Management Scrutiny Committee by
ensuring representation of the balance of the Council, plus seven
non-executive councillors, appointed by each of
Lincolnshire’s seven district councils including
ELDC. The co-opted Members maintain
full voting rights on the Committee, and replacement members are
permitted.
The Committee is attended by senior
representatives from the Flood and Water Team, Anglian Water and
the Environment Agency, and the meetings provide an opportunity for
Councillors to raise local concerns to these organisations.
ELDC is able to maintain involvement in the
development of major strategic initiatives relating to water
management, as well as the Local Flood Risk Management Strategy and
the Flood and Water Management Plan.
