StormSmart Planning

Planning is a powerful way for your community to protect its people and property by taking proactive steps—like preventing growth in hazardous areas—that ultimately safeguards your community and its financial resources. For example, well-planned development is less likely to force costly evacuations or to lead to damaged community infrastructure.

Below is a menu of planning options.
