The Local Hazard Mitigation Plan (LHMP) is a strategic document developed by the City of Albany to identify potential natural and human-made hazards, assess community vulnerabilities, and outline actions to reduce long-term risks to people, property, and the environment. It serves as a proactive tool to guide planning, infrastructure improvements, and community education efforts that strengthen the city's resilience to disasters. The LHMP is essential for preparing for future hazards and minimizing the impact of events such as earthquakes, wildfires, flooding, and other emergencies.
