<br />Ramsey County | Multi-Jurisdiction Hazard Mitigation Plan 69 <br />Action <br />Number Jurisdiction <br />Mitigation Action <br />Name <br />What is the problem <br />the action is solving? How does the action solve the problem? <br />Is this a <br />continuing <br />action from <br />2019 plan? Action Status <br />25 Ramsey County <br />Enrollment in the <br />NFIP program <br />This mitigation action <br />addresses the non- <br />participation of a <br />community in Ramsey <br />County that is <br />currently not enrolled <br />in the National Flood <br />Insurance Program <br />(NFIP). <br />Working with the municipal EMA over the <br />next two to three years, Ramsey County <br />EMHS will work to enroll this municipality <br />in the National Flood Insurance Program <br />(NFIP). Without NFIP participation, <br />residents are at greater financial risk <br />during flood events and may face higher <br />recovery costs of flooding. Yes In Progress <br />26 Ramsey County <br />County-wide <br />Everbridge <br />enrollment <br />This mitigation action <br />addresses Ramsey <br />County's ability to <br />notify residents, <br />including those who <br />use a language other <br />than English, or may <br />have other special <br />needs such as vision <br />or hearing <br />impairment, of <br />impending or on- <br />going hazards that <br />may affect them or <br />their property. <br />Ramsey County will conduct outreach <br />annually to ensure Ramsey County <br />residents, including those who those who <br />use a language other than English, or may <br />have other special needs such as vision or <br />hearing impairment, are aware of and <br />can sign up for the County's Everbridge <br />Emergency Notification System. No New Action <br />27 Ramsey County <br />Schools and higher <br />education <br />participation <br />This mitigation action <br />addresses the <br />problem of <br />insufficient disaster <br />preparedness and <br />resilience within <br />educational <br />institutions, which are <br />often vulnerable to <br />disruptions from <br />natural hazards. <br />This mitigation strategy aims to <br />collaborate with local public and private <br />school districts, as well as institutes of <br />higher learning, to enhance their disaster <br />preparedness and resilience through <br />tailored risk assessments, emergency <br />response plans, and structural mitigation <br />measures. By integrating educational <br />institutions into community-wide hazard <br />mitigation strategies, the project aims to <br />safeguard lives, protect critical <br />infrastructure, and ensure continuity of <br />education during and after disasters.
