For those hazards that can be mitigated, the City and CCUSD must be prepared to implement efficient and effective short and long term actions where needed. The purpose of the MJHMP is to provide the City and CCUSD with clear direction for hazard mitigation action planning. The MJHMP identifies resources, information, and strategies for risk reduction and provides a tool to measure the success of mitigation implementation on a continual basis. https://www.culvercity.org/live/public-safety/hazard-mitigation-plan393952016{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-118.4, 34.02]}2019-10-16T18:32:22.947
