Convener of Stirling Council's Environment and Housing Committee, Cllr Jim Thomson said: "The severe weather and flooding warnings across Scotland is a reminder that local flood risk management plans are required to alleviate flood risk.
"It's in all of our interests for measures taken to mitigate flood risks that are resilient and appropriate to our local communities. I encourage all residents and businesses to take part in this consultation to shape how the flood risk management plan is implemented."
Vice Convenor, Councillor Danny Gibson said: "As we find ourselves facing more frequent spells of extreme weather conditions due to climate change, our preparedness and response to local flood risks needs to reflect feedback from our communities.
"Localised flooding is something that should be kept to an absolute minimum and having a comprehensive flood risk management plan will go a long way to reaching practical solutions. Please take the time to take part in the consultation."
