NEW!!! Mitigation Planning How-To #8
Multi-Jurisdictional Mitigation Planning
“Multi-Jurisdictional Approaches to Hazard Mitigation Planning” (FEMA 386-8) is the newest guide in FEMA's Mitigation Planning How-To series. This guide provides suggestions to local governments in preparing multi-jurisdictional mitigation plans. A multi-jurisdictional hazard mitigation plan is a plan jointly prepared by more than one jurisdiction and may include any county, municipality, city, town, township, school district or other special district, council of governments or other regional organization, Indian tribes or Alaska Native village, or unincorporated areas.
Multi-jurisdictional plans pose special considerations that single jurisdictional plans may not face; but there are benefits as well, such as cost savings to prepare plans, shared staff and resources, and comprehensive approaches to mitigation hazards that cross jurisdictional boundaries.
