Charles Perry — Jul 16, 2026

← Findings

Perry, who authored several of the Legislature's 2025 flood measures, said some of the quickest-acting changes were the new youth-camp safety requirements (state-approved emergency plans; moving campers to higher ground on flood warnings). He framed the state's flood response as a long-term effort built over multiple sessions, saying the investments already made — from stronger camp rules to weather monitoring — were improving outcomes even as the largest infrastructure projects remain years away.
