Iroquois County Mitigation Meeting September 17th
Community leaders, township officials and the public are invited to Iroquois County’s Mitigation Planning Meeting Thursday, September 17th. The 6 pm meeting is being held in the County Board Room at the Administrative Center in Watseka. Stakeholders who attended the mitigation plan kick-off meeting in April will learn about the next steps in advancing toward a FEMA-APPROVED hazard mitigation plan.
Stantec, the consulting firm hired to direct efforts in the plan, will discuss results of the risk analysis and mitigation strategies to minimize exposure of the identified hazards. These strategies will ultimately serve as the action plan to reduce or avoid long-term vulnerabilities to hazards identified throughout the county.
Community input remains vital to ensure all vulnerable areas and potential county hazards are identified. Questions can be directed to the office of Emergency Services and Disaster Agency (ESDA) 815-432-6997 or the Iroquois County Zoning Office 815-432-6995.
