Leon County Final with Approval Letter And Leon County Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan 2018 "Under the Federal Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 (DMA 2000 or "the Act"), the participating jurisdictions are required to have a Federal Emergency Management Agency ("FEMA") - approved Local Hazard Mitigation Plan ("the Plan") in order to be eligible for certain pre- and post-disaster mitigation funds. Adoption of this Plan by the participating jurisdictions and approval by FEMA will serve the dual objectives of providing direction and guidance on implementing hazard mitigation in the participating jurisdictions, and qualify them to obtain federal assistance for hazard mitigation. Solely to help achieve these objectives, the Plan attempts to systematically identify and address hazards that can affect the participating jurisdictions. Nothing in this Plan is intended to be an admission, either expressed or implied, by or on behalf of the participating jurisdictions, of any obligation, responsibility, duty, fault or liability for any particular hazard or hazardous condition, and no such obligation, responsibility, duty, fault or liability for the participating jurisdictions should be inferred or implied from the Plan, except where expressly stated."

  • MESSAGE from the FOUNDER
    MESSAGE f r o m t h e FOUNDER the Terry Foundation approaches its twenty-fifth JL JL anniversary next year, a modest beginning in 1986 has evolved into the states largest private source of scholarship funding for eight Texas public universities. After its first seventeen years at the University of Texas at Austin and Texas A&M University, the Foundation expanded in 2004 to include Scholars at the University of Houston and at Texas State University-San Marcos. Later in 2006, the program expanded again to the University of Texas at San Antonio and the University of Texas at Dallas, and again in the fall of 2010 to the University of North Texas in Denton. In 2010, the Board of Directors approved additional growth for the Terry Foundation Scholarship Program to Texas Tech University in Lubbock. The first Scholars for Texas Tech were selected at interviews in April 2011 and will begin college in the fall of 2011. The Foundation is pleased to welcome this outstanding institution to the Terry program. Howard L. Terry This past April, the Foundation selected 200 new 2011 Scholars. This will bring the total number of active Terry Scholars at all eight universities to 698. The spring of 2011 also brought graduation to 133 Terry Scholars who join a growing body of Scholar Alumni that now numbers over 1,600. Our growing family of graduates are serving their communities in virtually every occupation and field of service imaginable. We greatly appreciate the many letters we get from our alumni around the world. In October of 2010, the Foundation was honored by the National Association of Scholarship Providers at its annual conference in Denver by being selected as the National Scholarship Provider of the Year.
