FEMA requires counties to update HMPs every five years for local jurisdictions to receive federal funding for hazard mitigation projects. Recent hazard events like the pandemic and flooding in Niagara County highlight the need for the community to work together to prepare for hazards. To plan effective strategies that limit the damage of future hazards in Niagara County, we need to hear from the community, especially residents more likely to be heavily impacted by hazard events, such as the elderly, people with disabilities, households without internet access, and others. Survey closes February 31, 2022
