2026 Sonoma County Multi-Jurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan

Headbanner_Hazard_Mitigation


A Local Hazard Mitigation Plan:

  • Identifies risks and vulnerabilities that area-specific local natural disasters pose
  • Serves as a long-term strategy for reducing identified risks and associated impacts to people and property
  • Provides a framework for future requests for Federal assistance

The 2026 plan update will leverage a regional approach to prepare a Multi-Jurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan (MJHMP) that comprises the hazard profiles, risk assessments, and mitigation strategies for multiple jurisdictions, including:

  • Bodega Bay Public Utility District
  • City of Cloverdale
  • City of Cotati
  • City of Healdsburg
  • City of Petaluma
  • City of Rohnert Park
  • City of Santa Rosa
  • City of Sebastopol
  • City of Sonoma
  • Cloverdale Fire Protection District
  • County of Sonoma
  • Gold Ridge Fire Protection District
  • North Sonoma Coast Fire Protection District
  • Northern Sonoma County Fire Protection District
  • Rancho Adobe Fire Protection District
  • Santa Rosa Junior College
  • Sonoma County Ag + Open Space
  • Sonoma County Fire District
  • Sonoma Valley Fire District
  • Sonoma Water
  • Timber Cove Fire Protection District
  • Town of Windsor

During the course of this planning project, county and local leaders and the community will work in tandem to identify risks, assess capabilities, and formulate a strategy to reduce disaster vulnerability.

The County is asking members of the public to contribute to the planning process by taking a survey. This survey is designed to gather information from around Sonoma County to help us better coordinate activities and reduce the risk of injury or property damage. These questions are for information-gathering only and responses will be shared with municipal, state, federal and county entities for planning purposes only. Please use the links below to complete the survey:

Emergency Operations Plan

The Emergency Operations Plan (EOP) is the programmatic and legal document that establishes the City of Healdsburg’s emergency management organization providing a basis for the City’s coordinated actions before, during, and after a disaster. The primary purpose of the EOP is to outline the City’s all-hazard, whole community approach to emergency operations to protect the safety, health, and welfare of its citizens. Additionally, this EOP establishes the foundational policies and procedures that define how the City will prepare for, respond to, recover from, and mitigate against natural or human-caused disasters. It provides a description of the emergency management organization and how it is activated.
