In the second episode of the APA Podcast series Resilience
Roundtable, Kim Mickelson, AICP, joins host Rich Roths, AICP, to
discuss Hurricane Harvey from her perspective as an attorney from
the City of Houston Planning Department. The storm hit during her
first week on the job, and it compelled city officials to approve a
new hazard-mitigation action plan in March 2018. Kim talks about
how having their third 500-year — or greater — storm in 18 months
made them take a second look at their floodplain regulations,
including elevation requirements for new construction, and their
infrastructure design standards. She reviews the more challenging,
Houston-specific aspects of the cleanup process and how she
immediately thought to engage the services of APA’s Community
Planning Assistance Team once the storm had passed.
