Weigh in on citys Hazard Mitigation Plan

The City of Marysville invites community members to review its draft Hazard Mitigation Plan, which aims to reduce the impact of disasters on residents and businesses. The plan is guided by four goals: safeguarding public health, reinforcing critical infrastructure, improving preparedness, and promoting collaboration among agencies and private entities. The Emergency Management division developed this draft with input from city staff and the community, utilizing modeling and mapping for risk assessment. An action plan outlines specific mitigation strategies to be implemented over the next five years. Public review and comment are open until December 3, allowing residents to voice their opinions.

Interested individuals can access the plan online or reach out to Emergency Preparedness Manager Sarah LaVelle for further details. This initiative reflects a proactive approach to disaster management in Marysville. Strengthening community resilience is essential for minimizing future risks and enhancing safety.
