Upper Big Blue NRD is beginning the first phase of their Hazard Mitigation Plan update. A hazard mitigation plan examines regional and local vulnerabilities to a range of hazards (i.e. flooding, severe winter storms, drought, etc.) and identifies strategies and projects to reduce their impact. Your jurisdiction is required to attend a meeting in order to participate in the plan. Once a community, county, or district (School District, Fire District, etc.) is part of an approved plan, they become eligible for up to a 75% cost share from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for a variety of projects listed in the plan.
Each meeting will last approximately 1 to 1.5 hours and can be attended in-person or virtually online.
If you are joining online, you can access and download your jurisdiction’s meeting worksheets starting January 19th by visiting this Google Drive link: https://bit.ly/UpperBigBlue-GoogleDrive.
Upper Big Blue NRD is working with JEO Consulting Group to help update the plan. Please RSVP to one of the meetings by contacting Anthony Kohel, JEO Planner, at (402) 474-8753 or akohel@jeo.com.
