Hazard Mitigation Plans

Hazard Mitigation Plans are strategic documents created by communities to reduce the risks and impacts of disasters, such as floods, earthquakes, or hurricanes. They identify potential hazards, assess vulnerabilities, and outline actions to minimize damage before disasters occur. These plans prioritize projects like improving infrastructure, enhancing emergency preparedness, and promoting public awareness to protect lives and property. By proactively addressing risks, communities can save money, reduce recovery time, and increase resilience against future hazards.
