How does its implementation and maintenance costs compare to its reduction in future damages? What are its advantages and disadvantages? Advantages Disadvantages Potential Use of Property as Open Space Briefly identify ways in which acquired property might be used. Target Properties Using your State’s and community’s criteria, identify your priorities for acquiring properties. Give a general description of the priority (e.g., Substantially damaged, primary residences located in the floodway, insured or uninsured), and briefly explain why it is ranked as it is. Your priorities represent the order of acquisition based on available funds. Priority Description Explanation 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Supporting Documentation List all supporting documentation (e.g., maps, aerial photographs, damage assessments, etc.). Identify documentation as thoroughly as possible and indicated where it can be found.
