Christian County Seeks Input On Natural Hazards

Christian County Emergency Management

  Christian County officials want to hear from citizens about how natural hazards affect them.  According to the Southwest Missouri Council of Governments, that feedback will be used to update the county’s Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan.

 

Since November of 2003, any county in Missouri declared to bea federal disaster area is required to have an approved Hazard Mitigation Plan to be eligible for specific grant funding. Funds can be used on projects that can prevent or reduce loss from future disasters.  They money can also go toward finding long-term solutions to a problem.

 

The public survey is online at www.smcog.org.
