Natural Hazards Mitigation PlanCity of GlendaleExecutive SummaryHazard Mitigation Advisory Committee will take responsibility for Plan implementation. TheCity Mayor, or designee, will serve as a convener to facilitate the Hazard Mitigation AdvisoryCommittee meetings, and will assign tasks such as updating and presenting the Plan to themembers of the committee. Plan implementation and evaluation will be a shared responsibilityamong all of the Hazard Mitigation Advisory Committee members.Implementation through Existing ProgramsThe City of Glendale addresses statewide planning goals and legislative requirements throughits General Plan, Capital Improvement Plans, and City Building and Safety Codes. The LocalNatural Hazard Mitigation Plan provides a series of recommendations that are closely related tothe goals and objectives of these existing planning programs. The City of Glendale will havethe opportunity to implement recommended mitigation action items through existing programsand procedures.Economic Analysis of Mitigation ProjectsMany studies have shown that one dollar spent on disaster mitigation saves ten dollars in futuredisaster costs. But, where is this pre-disaster mitigation money best spent? To answer thisquestion, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) uses two different but validapproaches to identify and measure the costs and benefits associated with natural hazardmitigation strategies or projects: benefit/cost analysis and cost-effectiveness analysis.Conducting benefit/cost analysis for a mitigation activity can assist communities in determiningwhether a project is worth undertaking now, in order to avoid disaster-related damages later.Cost-effectiveness analysis evaluates how best to spend a given amount of money to achieve aspecific goal. Determining the economic feasibility of mitigating natural hazards can providedecision makers with an understanding of the potential benefits and costs of an activity, as wellas a basis upon which to compare alternative projects. These exercises can also help prioritizethe implementation of action items based on the limited resources available.Formal Review ProcessGlendale’s Local Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan will be evaluated on an annual basis todetermine the effectiveness of its programs, and to reflect changes in land development orprograms that may affect the mitigation priorities. The evaluation process includes a firmschedule and time line, and identifies the local agencies and organizations participating in theevaluation of the Plan.
