the PPWMD is unable to create flood protection ordinances, the primary goal of the PPWMD is to improve and maintain the stormwater management system to contain the 25-year, 24-hour storm event within channel banks and to limit flooding during the 100-year, 24-hour storm event to the streets and yards where possible. A recent effort was untaken by the PPWMD in conjunction with the City of Pinellas Park in which revisions were made and accepted by the Federal Emergency Management Agency for the Flood Insurance Rate Maps of Channels 1, 2, 3 and 4. Additionally, the PPWMD employs staff and owns specialized equipment that are dedicated to maintaining the channels within the PPWMD boundary.

This large drainage basin includes parts of the cities of Pinellas Park, St. Petersburg, and Kenneth City. The Joe’s Creek system includes a main branch and three tributaries identified as Miles Creek and Pinellas Park Ditch #4 and Ditch #5. Dominant land use categories in the Joe’s Creek Watershed include residential, commercial, industrial, and recreational open space. The main channel of Joe’s Creek flows from east to west, ultimately discharging into Cross Bayou. The primary tributary to Joe’s Creek is Miles Creek which has existing poor water quality and is thought to contribute significant sediment loadings to Joe’s Creek. This request involves the development of a comprehensive watershed management plan which includes recommendations for water quality, drainage, and natural system improvement projects. Describe your organizations efforts in developing, implementing and enforcing water conservation and flood protection ordinances. Pinellas County is dedicated to improving flood protection as documented in the County's Comprehensive Plan (CP). The Surface Water Element of the CP obligates the County to protect, enhance, and improve water quality through water quality monitoring, watershed management plan development, and environmental enforcement. In addition, Pinellas County continues to expand its reclaimed water service areas to reduce demand on potable water for irrigation, to enforce watering restrictions, and to educate the public on the benefits of Florida Friendly Landscaping and proper irrigation and fertilization practices. Pinellas County also offers free resources to help students learn about saving water and offers numerous programs through the Extension office on the use of rain barrels, rain gardens, composting, and other conservation measures.
