PASO ROBLES, Calif. - The city of Paso Robles is working on updating their Hazard Mitigation plan and wants public input.
According to the city, the purpose of hazard mitigation is to reduce potential losses from future disasters. Mitigation plans identify the natural hazards that impact communities, identify actions to reduce losses from those hazards, and establish a coordinated process to implement the plan. As part of the update process, the City must review and revise its plan to reflect changes in development, progress in local mitigation efforts, and changes in priorities and resubmit for FEMA approval.
The Hazard Mitigation Plan Update is an open public involvement process and the public is invited to comment on the plan during the drafting stage and prior to plan approval. The first workshop for the plan update will be held on October 18, 2012 and is open to the public. The workshop will cover project initiation, hazard identification, and capability assessment.
