Weigh in on citys Hazard Mitigation Plan

The City of Marysville is actively seeking public input on its Hazard Mitigation Plan, designed to enhance community resilience in the face of disasters. The draft plan establishes four primary goals: to reduce risks to life and public health, to strengthen critical infrastructure, to improve preparedness and response capacities, and to align efforts across various agencies. Developed by the Emergency Management division, the plan reflects extensive collaboration with city departments and community input gathered through meetings and an online survey. It assesses local hazards and outlines a five-year action plan for mitigation. Residents can provide feedback until December 3, either through the city’s website or by contacting the Emergency Preparedness Manager directly.

This proactive approach underscores the city's dedication to minimizing disaster impacts on lives, property, and the environment. The plan’s implementation will rely on coordinated strategies among public and private entities, ensuring a sustainable and resilient community. Engaging the public in this process is crucial for addressing unique community needs and enhancing overall safety.
