The city of Wheat Ridge and Jefferson County Emergency Management is hosting an open house on Wednesday, March 23, 2016, 5 -7 p.m. to present information on reducing risk to natural disasters in the county, including floods, wildfires, winter storms and other hazards. The open house will be at the Wheat Ridge City Council Chambers, 7500 W 29th Ave, Wheat Ridge, CO 80033.
The Jefferson County Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan
is undergoing an update and the open house is being held to raise awareness and solicit input on the draft plan. This is an important plan in helping the county, municipalities and fire districts understand the potential impacts of a multitude of hazards and outlines strategies to reduce damage and loss.
All interested parties are invited and encouraged at attend. The meeting is being held as part of the city of Wheat Ridge’s Floodplain Open House. A presentation on Wheat Ridge flood hazards and flood mapping will begin at 5:15 p.m., followed by a presentation and discussion on the Hazard Mitigation Plan at 6:15 p.m. The draft plan will be available for public review and comment on the Jefferson County Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan web page
between March 18 and April 8.
