County Seeking Public’s Feedback on Draft Multi-Jurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan
The County of Santa Barbara is seeking the public’s feedback on the draft 2022 Santa Barbara County Multi-Jurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan (MJHMP) Update. The MJHMP is updated every five years to prepare the county for changing and dynamic hazards, identifying vulnerable communities and structures, and preparing mitigation goals and actions.
County residents are encouraged to review the draft plans and provide feedback. The public comment period is open through March 15. The project information is hosted on the County’s emergency preparedness website at ReadySBC.org, including a link to attend a virtual public meeting at 5:30 p.m. Wednesday, March 9 when the draft plan will be discussed. Development of the MJHMP started in early 2021 with a final plan expected in fall 2022 following review and approval from participating local, state and federal agencies.
All written comments should be addressed to J.D. Saucedo at 4408 Cathedral Oaks Road, Santa Barbara, CA 93110 or via email to jsaucedo@countyofsb.org. All comments must be received no later than 5 p.m. March 15, 2022. !
