Two cold fronts caused the flooding.]]> 2018-09-11 14:57:04 UTC https://padlet.com/heane035/6z639skxck0t/wish/279902376 heane035 https://padlet.com/heane035/6z639skxck0t/wish/279902621 -Streams that flow through the city were filled with debris 
-Grassy fields were flooded and some even left as sandy, muddy earth afterwards 
-Aquatic life was impacted by the dirty water as well as the flow of streams being changed as well were land animals having their habitat drastically changed by the storms
-Roads were eroded 
-Businesses and homes were ruined]]> 2018-09-11 14:57:25 UTC https://padlet.com/heane035/6z639skxck0t/wish/279902621 heane035 https://padlet.com/heane035/6z639skxck0t/wish/279902864 -Repairing roads and trails as well as building concrete barriers to help hold back erosion was one thing that the city started to do
-The DNR was involved in adding vegetation and habitat to help aquatic life
-The community came together a lot after the disaster in many ways
(Minnesota Power paid to replace basketball courts and tennis courts that were destroyed)
-The city didn't have an emergency plan in place, because this wasn't anticipated, but they re-evaluated their system, and adopted a Code Red Emergency Communication System to be better prepared. 
-They also evacuated locals, as necessary

- Benning said the city also has worked to armor stream and river banks to prevent erosion. It also has improved ditches to reduce the risk of water overtopping roadways.

Evaluation: Observing underlying patterns (increased rain fall)
Interventions: Control strategies including health education and risk communication - this would be monitoring rising sea levels and informing the public on action plans
Infrastructure: Implementing interventions at the federal and state level (implementing levee system)
Impact Assessment: Ensuring that the interventions undertaken have been effective. ]]> 2018-09-11 15:39:00 UTC https://padlet.com/heane035/6z639skxck0t/wish/279928806
