SYNOPSIS This is a request for adoption of the 2021 Papio-Missouri River Natural Resources District Multi- Jurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan Update. The purpose of the mitigation plan is to lessen the effects of disasters by increasing the disaster resistance of the Natural Resources District and participating jurisdictions located within the planning boundary by identifying the hazards that affect the Papio-Missouri River Natural Resources District and prioritize mitigation strategies to reduce potential loss of life and property damage from those hazards. FEMA regulations require documentation that the plan has been formally adopted by the governing body of the City of Papillion in the form of a resolution and further requesting approval of the plan at the Federal Level. FISCAL IMPACT Not applicable. RECOMMENDATION Approval. BACKGROUND In September 2006, City Council adopted a multi-jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan that was prepared by the Nebraska Department of Natural Resources.

The Federal Disaster Mitigation Act of 2020 was signed into law on October 30, 2000, placing new emphasis on state and local mitigation planning for natural hazards and requiring communities to adopt a hazard mitigation action plan to be eligible for pre-disaster and post-disaster federal funding for mitigation purposes. On February 18, 2020, City Council approved Resolution No. R20-0033 to approve participation in the Papio-Missouri NRD Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan for a six-county area including Burt, Dakota, Douglas, Sarpy, Thurston, and Washington Counties and the associated local governmental entities.
