Livingston County Hazard Mitigation Plan (2025 Draft)

Posted copy: Draft · February 3, 2026 · 422 pages

The purpose of hazard mitigation is to reduce or eliminate long-term risk to people and property from hazards. Livingston County and participating jurisdictions and school/special districts developed this multi-jurisdictional local hazard mitigation plan update to reduce future losses from hazard events to the County and its communities and school/special districts. The plan and the update were prepared pursuant to the requirements of the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 to result in eligibility for the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Hazard Mitigation Assistance Grant Programs. The County Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan is a multi-jurisdictional plan that covers the following jurisdictions that participated in the planning process:

  • Unincorporated Livingston County
  • City of Chillicothe
  • City of Utica
  • Chillicothe R-II
  • Livingston County R-III
  • Southwest Livingston County R-II
