Sun Valley Council adopts Blaine County All‑Hazard Mitigation Plan
Summary
The Sun Valley City Council approved Resolution 2015-14 adopting the Blaine County Multi-Jurisdictional All‑Hazard Mitigation Plan after a presentation by Police Chief Walt Femling and a short question-and-answer period; the vote was unanimous.
The Sun Valley City Council voted June 23 to adopt Resolution 2015-14, authorizing the city to adopt the Blaine County Multi-Jurisdictional All‑Hazard Mitigation Plan. Police Chief Walt Femling provided an overview of the plan and answered council questions about local implementation and coordination with county emergency services.
Council Member Jane Conard moved to approve Resolution 2015-14; Council Member Michelle Griffith seconded the motion. A voice vote recorded all present council members — Michelle Griffith, Peter Hendricks, Jane Conard and Council President Keith Saks — as ayes, with no nays. Mayor Dewayne Briscoe declared the motion approved.
The plan is a countywide framework meant to guide hazard mitigation priorities and interjurisdictional coordination; during the discussion Chief Femling described how the city would participate in hazard planning and response coordination. The council did not propose an amendment on the floor and took the formal adoption as presented.
The council did not set any separate implementation timetable in the meeting; staff were directed during the discussion to coordinate with Blaine County and report back to council if specific local projects or funding needs are identified.
