LEPC meeting - Hazard Mitigation Plan 2018

Cass County EM spoke about the Cass County Hazard Mitigation Plan, revised 2019. Manny mentioned that the planning for the revision began in January 2016 and brought up options on when the committee should begin planning for the next revision which will be due in March 2024. A few options were discussed on whether we should begin planning this year, beginning of next, or if he should continue to gather more information to get a better idea of when to start the planning on the revision. It was decided to continue gathering information to make the best decision.

Local Planning Team - Hazard Mitigation Plan 2018

Cass County EM explained that the Hazard Mitigation Plan will expire on March 2024. After conducting some research, he found that the Grant Application process will take at least 9 months and hiring a company to update our plan, the company would need a year to a year and a half to complete the plan. This will most likely run past our expiration date. Manny will begin the Grant Application process; however, we will still need to update our own plan for 2024. We will need to decide if we are going to create a subcommittee and begin this process as quickly as possible.
