Atlanta-Fulton EMA To Hold Public Meeting On Hazard Mitigation Plan

The Atlanta-Fulton County Emergency Management Agency (AFCEMA) will hold a public meeting at 6:30 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 22, 2015. Attendees will receive an overview of the hazard mitigation planning process and will have the opportunity to offer recommendations.

The meeting will be held at the Alpharetta Public Library located at 10 Park Plaza, Alpharetta, Georgia 30009.

AFCEMA is currently working on updating the Fulton County Multijurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan in partnership with local municipalities. One of the program mandates is to solicit comments and suggestions from our citizen in the form of three (3) community meetings.

The Atlanta-Fulton County Emergency Management Agency is the lead county organization responsible for providing management and coordination of mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery activities within Fulton County. This is accomplished via hazard mitigation as well as preparation and response planning done in partnership with City/County agencies, regional and state level partners, non-profit entities, schools and the private sector.

The final plan will be submitted to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (AFCEMA) for approval.
