Hazard mitigation is any action that reduces or eliminates long-term rish to people and property from disasters and their impacts.
The goals of the hazard mitigation plan are to:
A hazard mitigation plan can help the community understand how natural hazards impact the immediate environment and aid with development siting and design to limit damages from natural hazards.
Having a Local Hazard Mitigation Plan makes towns eligible for FEMa grants such as the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program, Flood Mitigation Assistance, and the Pre Disaster Mitigation Competitive Grant.
