Anoka County Multi-Jurisdictional <br />All Hazards Mitigation Plan <br /> 26 <br /> <br /> <br />State and federal response and homeland security documents were referenced to ensure <br />Anoka County’s goals supported these plans and promoted compliance with requirements. The <br />State of Minnesota Hazard Mitigation Plan formed the basis for identifying and analyzing the <br />natural hazards and man-made hazards that could affect Anoka County and the participating <br />jurisdictions. The Anoka County Emergency Operations Plan provided insight into the <br />jurisdictional response to disasters and was used to develop and validate mitigation goals, <br />objectives, and actions. <br /> <br />In some cases, these documents identified areas for needed mitigation actions; for example, <br />review of the Anoka County Emergency Evacuation Plan made clear the need for updating and <br />expanding this plan, and goals/actions were written to mitigate this weakness. After review of <br />the ordinances, regulations, and resolutions of each jurisdiction, the Legal and Regulatory <br />Capabilities Summary Table at Section 5.1.3.1 was prepared. This summary made evident that <br />reviewing and updating ordinances and regulations are important to control hazards and reduce <br />risk.
