From the Chair
In anticipation of spring our thoughts turn toward warmer weather and the annual AFMA spring technical workshop. Now is the time to review your floodplain master plan, to clean your ditches and to promote mitigation efforts.
And that's what we'll discuss at the spring technical workshop. I am pleased to announce that registration is now open for this annual event that will take place at the Jacksonville Community Center April 18 – 19. Join us for a day-and-a-half workshop that covers a variety of topics you won't want to miss!
Once again we have negotiated special rates for AFMA members at local hotels. But you will have to hurry! Rooms are limited. Click here to begin your workshop registration process now.
