Monmouth County, New Jersey 2026 Multi-Jurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan: Virtual Public Workshop
FREEHOLD, N.J. – The Monmouth County Sheriff’s Office is updating its 2021 Monmouth County Multi-Jurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan (HMP). Hazard mitigation planning identifies risks and vulnerabilities associated with natural disasters and develops long-term strategies for protecting people and property from future hazard events. A HMP is required by state and federal agencies to be updated every five (5) years in order for communities in Monmouth County to be eligible for certain types of state and federal disaster relief funds after a disaster occurs.
Monmouth County, alongside consultant Michael Baker International, Inc., will host a series of public workshops during this plan update. The purpose of the workshops is to provide an update on the project and to gather input from residents. Public input will help the project team better understand risks, vulnerabilities, and impacts of natural hazards to the community and identify potential mitigation actions to reduce that risk.

Date and Time: Wednesday, February 7, 2024, 10:00 – 11:00 AM
