Weigh in on citys Hazard Mitigation Plan

The City of Marysville has published a draft of its Hazard Mitigation Plan, inviting residents and workers to review and comment. This plan aims to improve community resilience to disasters by focusing on four long-term goals: reducing hazards, strengthening infrastructure, enhancing preparedness, and aligning priorities across departments. Developed by the city’s Emergency Management division with extensive public input, the plan utilizes modeling and mapping for risk assessment. It identifies local natural and human-caused hazards and proposes specific mitigation actions for the next five years. Public review is open until December 3, 2025, with opportunities for residents to provide feedback online.

Comments can be directed to the Emergency Preparedness Manager via email or phone. This proactive approach highlights the city's dedication to minimizing disaster impacts on lives and the environment. Ultimately, the plan aims to foster a sustainable and resilient community.
