What: Bring your local planning team to our mitigation workshops. These in-person workshops will give your local planning team an opportunity to work with the Hazard Mitigation Planning team to identify local hazards and areas of concern, review previously identified mitigation actions, develop future mitigation projects, prioritize mitigation projects moving forward and update your jurisdiction’s section of the 2021 Jerome County Mitigation Plan
