Answer:

Check Explanation(Last paragraph).

Explanation:

For the record, Civil Engineers that are workers of government are known as city Engineers. The Government are usually governments presiding over cities. These city Governments will give the civil engineers work to execute for instance building bridges, road and many more.

One of their other roles that is city Engineers is that of what is given in the question that is they build plans to avoid environmental hazards("contingency planning for another major flood'').

So, to answer the question, my response to the council will be;

'' please, let us prepare better for future disasters. Let us learn from this flood disaster. There can be another disaster that will be worse than this so we need to prepare, anything can happen be it tsunami or tectonic shift''.
