It appears that the consultants used the wrong data in developing the original climatology and hydrology in 2005 that has now been changed. Why should the public pay to correct their errors?

The consultants have not requested payment for any work done to correct errors. The revision to the climatology and hydrology was the result of adding storm data to increase the sample from 13 to 50 storms as recommended in review comments received from FEMA and others in 2005. The City has only been billed for additional work necessary to incorporate this new data into the analysis.
