Hazard Mitigation

The Town’s Hazard Mitigation Committee will begin a series of meetings in April 2024 to update the Henniker Hazard Mitigation Plan 2019. Every 5 years, the Hazard Mitigation Plan must be updated and approved to current requirements to ensure the Town’s continued eligibility for federal disaster recovery and mitigation grant project funding. Recent past and potential natural disasters, severe weather events, and other hazard events will be assessed, and critical facilities, vulnerable areas and populations will be identified. The Committee will review existing mitigation capabilities and develop long-term risk reduction mitigation actions to help alleviate the impact of these events on Henniker’s people, buildings, and property. We’d welcome your attendance and your unique perspectives during our discussions.

 The first meeting will be held on Monday, April 29, 2024, from 9:00-11:00 AM on Zoom Webinar and in person at Henniker Town Hall Conference Room, 18 Depot Hill Road.
