  • Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan Update Overview Frederick County, Maryland August, 2016 Hazard Mitigation Planning
    Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan Update Overview Frederick County, Maryland August, 2016 Hazard Mitigation Planning • Mitigation is the effort to reduce loss of life and property by lessening the impact of disasters. • Mitigation plans are key to breaking the cycle of disaster damage, reconstruction, and repeated damage. Federal Requirement (Stafford Act and 44 CFR Part 201): FEMA requires state, tribal, and local governments to develop and adopt hazard mitigation plans as a condition for receiving certain types of non-emergency disaster assistance, including funding for mitigation projects. Hazard Mitigation Plans • Increase education and awareness around threats, hazards, and vulnerabilities; • Build partnerships for risk reduction involving government, organizations, businesses, and the public; • Identify long-term strategies for risk reduction; • Identify cost effective mitigation actions, focusing resources on the greatest risks and vulnerabilities; • Align risk reduction with other state, tribal, or community objectives; • Communicate priorities to potential sources of funding. Hazard Identification & Risk Assessment Conducting a risk assessment provides the foundation for the rest of the hazard mitigation planning process. The four basic components of a risk assessment are to: 1) Identify hazards; 2) Profile hazard events; 3) Inventory assets and 4) Estimate losses. Mitigation Strategy The mitigation strategy describes how the community will accomplish the overall purpose, or mission, of the planning process. Must include goals that represent what the community seeks to achieve through mitigation plan implementation. Mitigation Actions A mitigation action is a specific action, project, activity, or process taken to reduce or eliminate long-term risk to people and property from hazards and their impacts. Primary types of mitigation actions include: – local plans and regulations, – structure and infrastructure projects, – natural systems protection, and – education and awareness programs.

  • The Town of New Market
    THE TOWN OF NEW MARKET ANNEXATION PLAN Property Owners: Justron, LLC (“Smith Property”) P.O. Box 222 New Market, Maryland 21774 Charlyn, LLC (“Cline Property”) 5920 Boyers Mill Road New Market, Maryland 21774 Developer MS Justron Farm, LLC & MS Charlyn Farm, LLC Acres: 262.4080 acres Property Location: The Smith Property and Cline Property (hereinafter collectively the “Property”) are located west of the Town’s current corporate boundary along Boyers Mill Road and north of Maryland Route 144. In accordance with §§ 4-401, et seq., of the Local Government Article of the Annotated Code of Maryland, the Town of New Market Maryland (the “Town”) adopts this annexation plan. While the statute only requires consideration of the extension of municipal services into the area to be annexed, this Plan also addresses other services provided by Frederick County (the “County”), including police, fire protection, emergency response, libraries, public education and utilities. I. LAND USE PATTERN The proposed zoning for the Property is the Town’s R-2 Medium Density Residential, which permits Planned Development District (“PDD”) floating zones. The proposed zoning is inconsistent with the County’s current Agricultural zoning. However, the County has placed the Property within the Community Growth Limit of the Town. Section 4-416 of the Local Government Article of the Annotated Code of Maryland provides for express approval of the proposed zoning classification by the Board of County Commissioners. The Town’s Land Use Map designates the Property as being located within the Town’s Planning Area and Annexation Area. The Land Development Ordinance of the Town permits PDD floating zones, which would require that the area of the Property used for residential purposes be planned for development at a rate of at least 3.5 dwelling units per net acre.
