Local Hazard Mitigation Plan Update Project

To reduce the risk of flooding in the Sacramento area, the County of Sacramento is partnering with the City of Sacramento and other special districts to update the Local Hazard Mitigation Plan.

Last updated in 2021, the plan addresses the long-term risk and loss to people, property, the environment, and local economies in the face of future natural disasters.

Communities with a FEMA-approved LHMPs are eligible to apply for FEMA pre- and post-disaster mitigation grant funding.

Updating the LHMP also helps lower the costs of flood insurance premiums for communities -- including the City of Sacramento -- that are participating in the National Flood Insurance Program’s Community Rating System.

2026 LHMP Plan development process

Sacramento County and all planning partners are kicking off their 2026 LHMP Update with a Hazard Mitigation Planning Committee.

Public meetings for this committee will be held in December 2025.

The plan is expected to be completed in December 2026.

For additional information on this project, upcoming meetings, and how you can get involved, visit the LHMP webpage.
