Brownsville council adopts Houston County Hazardous Mitigation Plan
Summary
The Brownsville City Council voted Feb. 5 to adopt the 2024 Houston County Hazardous Mitigation Plan by resolution, opting not to draft a separate city plan at this time.
The Brownsville City Council voted on Feb. 5 to adopt the 2024 Houston County Hazardous Mitigation Plan. Council member Pam Walhovd moved to approve a resolution adopting the county plan; Council member David Prestby seconded and the motion passed.
Council members reviewed the choice between adopting the county plan or preparing a city-specific plan and selected adoption of the Houston County plan. The council record shows no further conditions attached to the resolution.
Adopting the county plan means the city will follow the countywide mitigation framework rather than drafting its own document. The transcript notes that council considered both options before the vote but does not include additional detail about implementation steps or timelines.
The council took the vote during its regular meeting; no public comments on this item were recorded in the minutes. The council adjourned at 8:48 p.m.
