On Sept. 2 the Florence Board of Mayor and Aldermen approved entering into an agreement with the Central Mississippi Planning & Development District (CMPDD) to update the city's hazard-mitigation plan in accordance with the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000.
Alderman Brian Grantham moved to enter the agreement and Alderman Mason Herrin seconded; the motion carried unanimously. The minutes state the update will be performed by CMPDD but do not list contract value, schedule or specific deliverables.
Updating the hazard-mitigation plan typically ensures local plans meet federal standards and remain eligible for certain federal mitigation grants and programs; the minutes record only the board's authorization to proceed with CMPDD.
