Weigh in on citys Hazard Mitigation Plan

The City of Marysville encourages residents to review and comment on its draft Hazard Mitigation Plan, designed to bolster community resilience against disasters. The plan, developed by the Emergency Management division over several months, outlines four primary goals: minimizing safety threats, fortifying infrastructure, improving preparedness, and enhancing collaboration among various entities. Community input was gathered through public meetings and an online survey, ensuring diverse perspectives were considered. The city employed modeling and mapping techniques to assess risks and identify strengths within the community. An actionable five-year plan details specific mitigation strategies to be implemented.

Feedback from the public will be accepted until December 3, available on the city’s website. The initiative signifies a commitment to safeguarding residents’ lives and properties from potential hazards. Proactive disaster management is essential for long-term community sustainability.
