Local Government Facilities

This group of layers was developed by the Balmoral Group and contains the critical community and emergency facilities layers as defined in 380.093(2)(a) Florida Statutes. The layers were sourced from various public State of Florida and Federal Sources. Critical community and emergency facilities includes schools, colleges, universities, community centers, correctional facilities, disaster recovery centers, emergency medical service facilities, emergency operations centers, fire stations, health care facilities, hospitals, law enforcement facilities, local government facilities, logistical staging areas, affordable public housing, risk shelter inventory, and state government facilities. Typically, the data are utilized in various vulnerability assessments in evaluating the exposure and sensitivity from combined events of sea level rise, precipitation, major storms, and flooding. The data will also be used in efforts to complete a comprehensive statewide assessment for the State of Florida.
