Taos County staff seek feedback on draft hazard mitigation plan; comments requested by Feb. 20
Summary
County staff told commissioners a draft hazard mitigation plan has been distributed to stakeholders and asked for comments by Feb. 20; the draft will be presented to the commission before formal adoption.
Speaker 5 said the county's hazard mitigation plan is at a 'draft final' stage and that "director Bobby Lucero has distributed it to all the stakeholders for the review," asking stakeholders to return comments by Feb. 20. The speaker said staff member LoSettle will present the draft to the commission and that it will later come before the commission for adoption.
Why it matters: A hazard mitigation plan guides how the county prepares for and reduces risk from natural disasters; the plan's review and adoption set priorities for grants, infrastructure hardening and emergency response coordination.
Details: Speaker 5 described the distribution process and the near-term timeline for stakeholder feedback. The speaker asked stakeholders to return comments by Feb. 20 and said staff will bring a presentation of the draft to the commission before any adoption vote. The transcript does not record any formal motion or vote on the plan at this meeting.
Next steps: Staff presentation to the commission is planned (Speaker 5 said LoSettle will present); a formal adoption vote was described as forthcoming but no date was given.
