The entire Hazard and Vulnerability Assessment was updated. The hazard ranking was changed a new format deployed that ranks the hazards according to five indices, 1) historical occurrence, 2) probability, 3) vulnerability, 4) spatial extent, i.e, the extent impact based on geography, and 5) the magnitude which looks specifically at the loss of life, injuries, and economic impact. The Plan format was changed to match the FEMA Local Plan Crosswalk Guidance. The figure below contains the revised risk ranking for Twin Falls County.

  • Challenges. Lt May Help Prevent "Silo" Planning, Where Planning Is Done As If It Involves Or Lnclude Information About
    October 22,2OL8. Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the 2018 Jerome County Comprehensive Plan It is an impressive compilation of information about the current status of our county with some ambitious ideas for its future. However, I am surprised to find that there is no mention that all of Jerome County is now designated with Twin Falls County as a Metropolitan Statistical Area as defined by the United States Census Bureau. This designation brings opportunities as well as challenges. lt may help prevent "silo" planning, where planning is done as if it involves or affects no other entities. One of its impacts will be planning for regional transportation mentioned in Chapter 8: Transportation. I have the following recommendations: Chapter 3: History and Special Sites lnclude information about the 1811 Wilson Price Hunt expedition sponsored by lohn Jacob Astor searching for a transportation route to Astoria, OR. This party was a very important in leading to the eventual development of the Western United States. They had hoped to float the Snake River, but were wrecked at Cauldron Linn, losing a member ofthe party and supplies. The party had to split up with Hunt leading one group North of the river. Among this group was pregnant Madame Marie Dorian and her two little boys. This site could be very important to historic tourism. I have attached information and references. I am gratified to see recognition of Lava Rock Structures. I was the initiator and researcher of this National Historic Places placement. lwould also mention the lava rock wall of the North Side Canal north of Eden.
