Beaverton : Natural hazard mitigation plan

Abstract

The Mitigation Plan contains background on the purpose of the plan, the methodology used to develop the plan, a profile of Beaverton, chapters on six natural hazards that have the potential to impact the City, and several appendices. The Plan also includes resources and information to assist city residents, public and private sector organizations, and others to participate in activities which mitigate against the effects of natural hazards. The mitigation plan provides recommendations for activities that will assist the City in reducing risk and preventing loss from future natural hazard events. The action items address multi-hazard issues, as well as activities for the hazards of flood, severe weather, landslides, wildfire, earthquake, and volcano-related events. [From the Plan]
