Hazard Mitigation Plan

The State of Alaska, Department of Military and Veterans Affairs, Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Management (DHS&EM) was awarded a Pre-Disaster Mitigation Program grant from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to develop a hazard mitigation plan (HMP) for the City of Kenai. This plan will assist the City as a valuable resource tool in making decisions. Communities must have a State- and FEMA-approved and community-adopted HMP to receive FEMA pre- and post- disaster grants.

HMP Adoption Resolution Before City Council 2/5/20:
Attend the February 5, 2020 regularly scheduled 6:00 pm City Council Meeting at the City Council Chambers, 210 Fidalgo Avenue for more information. One of the agenda items will be a resolution for the Kenai City Council to adopt the HMP. You are invited to provide input to the HMP. The HMP has been approved by the State of Alaska DHS&EM and FEMA and is now back with the City for formal adoption by resolution. The City of Kenai Planning and Zoning Commission will make a recommendation on adoption of the HMP to City Council at their meeting on January 22, 2020 at 7:00 pm, also at City Council Chambers. You are also invited to attend that meeting.
