San Mateo County is updating the Local Hazard Mitigation Plan (LHMP)

What is the LHMP?

The LHMP identifies natural hazard risks, such as floods, wildfires, earthquakes, and severe weather. The Plan outlines actions to reduce damage before disasters happen—protecting people, homes, and businesses.

Why the LHMP Matters

Uses updated data and local knowledge to identify the highest risk natural hazards. Develops practical strategies to reduce potential damage from natural hazards. Strengthens coordination among the County, cities, towns, special districts, community organizations, and residents. Keeps San Mateo County eligible for federal hazard mitigation funding.
