Information

Agenda Item

The Federal Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) require communities to develop and adopt hazard mitigation action plans (HMAP) to be eligible for the full-range of both pre and post-disaster hazard mitigation funding through the federal government. Williamson County as a plan participant passed a resolution adopting the Texas Colorado River Floodplain Coalition regional HMAP on May 17, 2011. Changes to the plan, not involving Williamson County, were submitted and approved by FEMA which requires a subsequent approval by Commissioner's Court.

Background

Due to an oversight in the plan, not pertaining to Williamson County, a revision was made and approved by FEMA. During the initial adoption of this plan any changes made effect the plan in its entirety and must receive an additional approval and resolution of its adoption.
