Weigh in on citys Hazard Mitigation Plan

The plan focuses on four goals: improving public safety, strengthening infrastructure, enhancing preparedness, and fostering collaboration among agencies. Developed by the Emergency Management division, the draft incorporates feedback from public meetings and online surveys, ensuring it reflects community needs. Specific mitigation actions are proposed for implementation over the next five years, addressing various natural and human-caused hazards. The city utilized modeling and mapping to assess risks and identify strengths within the community.
