Resolve to create a commission to determine the feasibility of voluntary acquisition of flood risk properties and structures

This bill establishes a commission to study the feasibility of a program that would allow the government to voluntarily purchase properties located in flood-prone areas. The commission, led by state officials and including representatives from various environmental, housing, and community organizations, will analyze the costs, funding options, and logistical steps required to acquire and demolish these structures. Its goal is to determine if such a program can effectively reduce future flood risks by permanently restoring the land as a natural buffer while fairly relocating affected residents. The final report will outline whether this approach is practical and what specific components would be needed to implement it across the state.
