With so many flood events across Somerset over the last 2 years we are grateful to everyone that contributed and to Somerset Council Officers and Councillors for the completed report. The report includes general (and a few specific) recommendations arising from the investigation but does not in itself determine works or provide funding. It provides a good basis for further discussion and decision making.
