Welcome• Session Objectives
• Increased knowledge of best practices inmitigation planning and project design
• Increased knowledge of useful resources formitigation planning
• Increased knowledge of approaches andresources for protecting LMI and vulnerablepopulations in mitigation planning andimplementation
• Speakers• Marion McFadden, Enterprise Community Partners• Joyce Coffee, Climate Resilience Consulting
“Instead of repeated damage and continual demands for federal disaster assistance, resilient communities proactively protect themselves against hazards, build self-sufficiency, and become more sustainable.” (Godschalk et al., 2009)

Key Elements of Hazard Mitigation• Be directly relevant to future
natural hazard risks• Indicate flexibility to adjust to
changing risks• Do no significant harm• Use appropriate time-horizons for
project planning• Magnify collateral benefits: engage
key influencers, draw in moreresources, achieve near term andlonger term progress
• Compare to business-as-usual- ifthe project were to not to exist,and/or were the asset not to behazard resilient
• Demonstrate that various resilienceoptions were considered andprovide a justification for the optionthat was selected
• Integrate into long term planning• Integrate into regional cooperation

Protecting Vulnerable Populations in Mitigation Planning• Preserve and protect most vulnerable populations• Each consideration must include LMI livelihoods• Resettlement is a local issue that must be balanced with preserving
affordable housing• Federal funding of resettlement means homes are demolished, land
is owned by government or a nonprofit group and must remain in“open space” use forever
