<br /> <br />2021 Multijurisdictional Local Hazard Mitigation Plan <br /> <br /> High Priority—The mitigation action is designed to reduce harm to multiple socially vulnerable groups <br />in the County from one or more of the hazards identified in the hazard mitigation plan. <br /> Medium Priority— The mitigation action is designed to reduce harm to a single socially vulnerable <br />population in the County from at least one hazard identified in the hazard mitigation plan. <br /> Low Priority— The mitigation action fails to advance social equity in any measurable way in the County <br /> <br />22.2.5 Prioritization Summary for Countywide Actions <br />Table 22-2 lists the priority of each action. <br /> <br />Table 22-2.

Mitigation types used for this categorization are as follows: <br /> Prevention—Government, administrative or regulatory actions that influence the way land and buildings <br />are developed to reduce hazard losses. Includes planning and zoning, floodplain laws, capital <br />improvement programs, open space preservation, and stormwater management regulations. <br /> Property Protection—Modification of buildings or structures to protect them from a hazard or removal <br />of structures from a hazard area. Includes acquisition, elevation, relocation, structural ret rofit, storm <br />shutters, and shatter-resistant glass. <br /> Public Education and Awareness—Actions to inform community members and elected officials about <br />hazards and ways to mitigate them. Includes outreach projects, real estate disclosure, hazard information <br />centers, and school-age and adult education. <br /> Natural Resource Protection—Actions that minimize hazard loss and preserve or restore the functions <br />of natural systems. Includes sediment and erosion control, stream corridor restoration, watershed <br />management, forest and vegetation management, wetland restoration and preservation, and green <br />infrastructure. <br /> Emergency Services—Actions that protect people and property during and immediately after a hazard <br />event. Includes warning systems, emergency response services, and the protection of essential facilities. <br /> Structural Projects—Actions that involve the construction of structures to reduce the impact of a hazard. <br />Includes dams, setback levees, floodwalls, retaining walls, and safe rooms. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />22-4
