Aurora Hazard Mitigation Plan Update Public Input Survey

Aurora is updating its Hazard Mitigation Plan per the five-year update cycle required by FEMA and the Federal Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000.

The Hazard Mitigation Plan analyzes the city's vulnerabilities to natural and human-caused hazards and identifies mitigation actions the city can take to minimize property damage and reduce the loss of life by lessening the impact of disasters.

The following are FEMA definitions for natural and human-caused hazards:

• Natural hazard - Source of harm or difficulty created by a meteorological, environmental or geological event.
• Human-caused hazard - Accidental or intentional actions of an adversary, such as a threatened or actual chemical or biological attack or cyber event.

The purpose of this survey is to collect information from the public and stakeholders to better understand the vulnerabilities within the city as well as solicit input on needs to best mitigate, or reduce, the impacts of hazards before they occur.

Please complete this survey by March 31, 2021. Thank you for your participation.
