Mitigation Planning Committee

The Hudson County Hazard Mitigation Planning Committee (Committee) was organized to provide guidance and leadership, oversee the planning process, and represent the interests and concerns of the County and twelve municipalities, in an effort to develop a plan that can be embraced both politically and by the constituency within the planning area. The makeup of this committee was selected to provide the best possible cross section of views to enhance the planning effort and to help build support for hazard mitigation.
