Hazard Mitigation Plan - Updated 2026
Gunnison County has begun its Public Review Period for the County's Hazard Mitigation Plan. The Hazard Mitigation Plan identifies threats and hazards to the County, and creates an action plan to reduce long-term risk to these hazards. The plan is available for public comment until Thursday, May 28, 2026. At the end of the Public Review Period, the completed plan will be submitted to the Colorado Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Management and the Federal Emergency Management Agency for final approval. Please inform our consultants, JEO, by emailing [email protected] should you desire any changes or have questions.
