A Resilient Larimer County: Mitigating Hazards in our Backyard - Open House, Dec. 2

Posted on: Nov-19-2015

Natural hazards pose a real threat to the people and property in our community. Join the Larimer County Office of Emergency Management and City of Fort Collins at an open house regarding the impacts of local natural hazards, Wednesday, Dec. 2, 6-8 p.m., Larimer County Building, 200 W. Oak St., Fort Collins, Boyd Lake Conference Room (first floor).

Larimer County and its jurisdictions are finalizing a planning process to update the local hazard mitigation plan and would like input from the community. This event will feature an open house setting with casual discussions and short presentations at 6:15 p.m. and 7:15 p.m. High-quality, up-to-date natural hazard maps will be available.

Community members are invited to share information about:

  • natural hazards that impact them
  • what could be done to reduce these impacts
  • how natural hazards could impact those they care about as well as the services they rely on daily
