Weigh in on citys Hazard Mitigation Plan

Marysville is seeking public input on its draft Hazard Mitigation Plan, intended to improve community resilience against disasters. The plan, focusing on four primary goals, aims to reduce hazards to life and safety, strengthen critical infrastructure, enhance preparedness, and align priorities across departments. Developed by the city's Emergency Management division, the plan incorporates feedback from public meetings and an online survey. Risk assessments, modeling, and mapping have informed the plan's action strategy for the next five years, detailing specific mitigation actions. Public comments are welcomed until December 3, with access available through the city’s website.

This proactive approach addresses both natural and human-caused hazards. The initiative is significant for protecting the community’s well-being, environment, and economy. The collaboration among various agencies and public participation highlights a unified effort towards a more resilient Marysville.
