Mashpee’s Hazard Mitigation Planning Committee has developed this Plan as a strategy for reducing current and future natural hazards risks and impacts from climate change. When implemented, the Hazard Mitigation Plan makes the Town more resilient to natural hazards such as flooding, snowstorms, high winds, and extreme temperatures. Town officials and local stakeholders developed this Plan with support from the Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency. Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) approval and Town adoption of the Hazard Mitigation Plan Update allows the Town to apply for pre- and post-disaster hazard mitigation grant funds.

For questions regarding this project, please contact Evan Lehrer, MPA, Community Development Director, Town of Mashpee, (508) 539-1414, elehrer@mashpeema.gov.
