This coming Tuesday, March 11, the Hayden City Council will be considering participating the All Hazard Mitigation Plan for 2025.
What is the All Hazard Mitigation Plan?
The All Hazard Mitigation Plan (AHMP) serves as the strategy document for Kootenai County’s hazard mitigation program. This plan identifies the hazards affecting Kootenai County; analyzes risks and vulnerabilities, determines potential losses, and develops strategies to reduce impacts, with the ultimate goal of saving lives, reducing injuries, and decreasing financial losses. Mitigation measures range from public education and land use planning to specific construction actions that reduces hazard losses. The Kootenai County AHMP is revised every five years in compliance with appropriate laws and regulations.
Agenda item: Consider Authorizing the Mayor to Sign the Letter of Intent to Participate in the All Hazard Mitigation Plan with Kootenai County.
