Agenda Item 7

7. AWARD OF BID FOR HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN\nThe Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the California Governor's Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES) requires local municipalities to prepare, adopt, maintain, and update (every 5-years) an approved Local Hazard Mitigation Plan (LHMP). A LHMP is the process of assessing vulnerabilities, risk, strategies for risk reduction, and assigning parties to carry out appropriate action. Furthermore, without an LHMP, the City of Bradbury (City) is ineligible to receive FEMA grant funds in the case of a disaster. The City is due for an update and recommends that the City Council approve a Professional Services Agreement with Atlas Planning Solutions for $42,980 to update the City's LHMP.
