Marlow Town Council Community Flood Plan 2015 Version Version 4
SECTION 1 Introduction:
Ownership:
This document is owned by Marlow Town Council.
Aims & Objectives:
To coordinate the community flood response, ensuring residents are informed and supported
before, during and after in the event of a flood. To ensure Marlow Town Council plays a vital part in
the multi-agency response and supporting Marlow residents, in a commitment to proactive
prevention.
Objectives:
1. To warn and inform the local community and other stakeholders before, during and after in
the event of a flood. This will be implemented by phone cascades, text, Twitter, content on
Marlow Town Council’s website and relevant third party websites, supported with face to
face visits.
2. To provide support to all town residents. In particular those who are deemed vulnerable,
during the three stages of a flood; before, during and after. This will be implemented
through the flood warden network.
3. To work with Wycombe District Council and other agencies, to ensure that Marlow is
represented in the wider multi-agency response to flooding.
4. To work in conjunction with other relevant services. To provide signposting, advice and
guidance to all residents and stakeholders in the case of flood events.
5. To evaluate our response and event outcomes as a learning curve, to ensure that we can
improve future decisions and actions.
Scope:
The communications plan addresses the various scales of flooding; this discusses the actions to be
implemented in the likelihood of a flood alert, through to a severe flood warning. Along with any
evacuations flooding may cause. The plan outlines the actions and procedures to be coordinated by
Marlow Town Council (MTC) before, during and after any flood event. The plan will be maintained
and updated by Marlow Town Council.
Review -The 2015 plan will be reviewed on an annual basis
and after any incident or exercise.

Marlow Town Council Community Flood Plan 2015 Version Version 4
Flexibility:
Due to the uncertainty of flooding and the availability of wardens at any one time, a high degree of
flexibility and interchangability of roles and responsibilities has been built into this plan. Community
Flood Wardens are expected, where possible to cover any flood zones if required.
Limitations of the Community Flood Plan:
In the event of a flood, Emergency Services have overall command. If residents are informed by the
police, Fire Services or any other responding agencies to stop their activity or evacuate the area,
they should do as instructed. The actions and procedures defined in this plan are intended to be
used as a guide, to coordinate the Marlow Town Council response to an event. If at any time
individuals consider the actions and procedures described within this plan a threat, place themselves
or others at risk of injury, or harm they should stop immediately and inform Marlow Town Council.
SECTION 2 Plan Activation:
This section outlines the Marlow Community Flood plan, activation process and identifies
immediate response actions. See Appendix 1 and 2.
This plan will be activated by the Community Emergency Manager, or their nominated
deputy (See Section 3).
Activation Triggers:
This plan will be activated in any of the following scenarios:

In the occurrence of a Flood Alert/Flood Warning or Severe Flood Warning from the
Environment Agency, or relevant alerts from the UK Met Office.

Notifications from a resident/flood warden that signs of imminent flooding have
been noticed. Observing that a community response is necessary.

Notification from Wycombe District Council, or any other category one responder
that flooding is imminent.

Awareness of expected flooding in upstream communities, which is liable to lead to
flooding in the Marlow area.
Refer to Appendix 1 for the Roles and Responsibilities
at each Activation trigger stage

Marlow Town Council Community Flood Plan 2015 Version Version 4
Note: It is important to bear in mind that residents may take individual
actions to prepare for and respond to flooding, outside of the community
response.
SECTION 3: Community Flood Response Team and Immediate
Response Actions:
Structure:
There are four distinct roles within the Community Flood Response team:
1. Community Emergency Manager (CEM)
2. Community Emergency Coordinator (CEC)
3. Community Flood Wardens (CFW)
4. Deputy Community Flood Wardens (DCFW)
Responsibilities:
The Community Emergency Manager has overall responsibility for leading the community flood
response; they will direct other team members as appropriate. This role will be filled by the Marlow
Town Council Clerk -Annie Jones, or in their absence the Deputy Town Clerk, Town Mayor or Deputy
Mayor, Community Emergency Coordinator, in that descending order.
There are five high risk flood areas within the Marlow area. Each of these has been assigned a
warden and a number of deputies. (See Appendix 4 & 7) The wardens are the primary channel of
communication, for everybody within their designated area. If the flood warden is not available, the
first Deputy on the list in the particular area will fulfil the role.
Flood wardens and their Deputies are designated to specific areas, but may be called upon to
support other areas within the local community.
For detailed information of the areas covered by
each CFW and DCFW see Appendix 7
