Bot · Answer

As an AI language model, I cannot provide a specific answer as to what the community could have to improve their livelihoods without further information. However, some possibilities to consider could be incorporating sustainable infrastructure that is resilient to flooding, such as green roofs, rain gardens, and permeable pavements. Additionally, implementing early warning systems and emergency response plans can also improve the community's preparedness and resilience to future flood events.
