BAY AREA, CA — The East Bay Regional Park District is inviting residents to weigh in on their response plan in the event of natural hazards.
In line with the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000, the park district is updating its Local Hazard Mitigation Plan to prevent harm on regional parks and local neighborhoods.
If approved by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the park district will be able to apply for grants that aid the community pre- and post-disaster.
