The Town’s Hazard Mitigation Committee will hold its next meeting on Monday, March 12, 2018 at 9:30 AM at the Bow Safety Center, 7 Knox Road, Bow. The draft Bow Hazard Mitigation Plan Update 2018 document is anticipated to be completed in summer 2018.
The Bow Hazard Mitigation Plan must be updated every five years and approved to current requirements to ensure the Town’s continued eligibility for federal disaster recovery and mitigation grant project funding. Past and potential natural disasters and other hazard events will be assessed and critical facilities and vulnerable areas and populations will be identified. The Committee will review existing mitigation capabilities and develop long-term risk reduction mitigation actions to help alleviate the impact of these events to Bow’s people, buildings, and property.
All unique perspectives from stakeholders, engaged citizens, businesses, and organizations are invited to attend and participate in the Town’s hazard mitigation discussion and decision making.
