Linking Tribal Planning Efforts

Integrate plan goals with other community objectives.

The mitigation plan should work with other Tribal planning efforts like land use plans, development standards, building codes, emergency operations plans, etc.

Look to integrate goals with other community objectives.  

Incorporation of hazard information and mapping into land use plans, zoning and subdivision codes, and the development review process can guide growth and redevelopment away from high-risk locations. This information can also be used to design and site future public facilities to minimize exposure to hazards.
