Pine County adopts updated Hazard Mitigation Plan after FEMA acceptance
Summary
The board adopted the county's updated Hazard Mitigation Plan (Resolution 2026-05). Staff said FEMA accepted the document in January and the plan will remain effective for five years.
Denise Anderson of the Pine County Sheriff's Office told the board FEMA accepted the updated Hazard Mitigation Plan in January and recommended formal adoption. Commissioners moved and approved Resolution 2026-05 to adopt the plan. Denise said the plan follows about two and a half years of work with the University of Minnesota Spatial group and Hundiser Consulting and included multiple public input meetings.
When asked how long adoption lasts, Denise said the mitigation plan is valid for five years, and board members were reminded the separate Emergency Operations Plan remains under development and will be presented to the board at a later meeting.
