🚨 Attention Rensselaer County Residents! 🚨

The Rensselaer County Bureau of Public Safety is updating our County’s Hazard Mitigation Plan, which happens every 5 years! This important plan helps break the cycle of disaster damage and reconstruction, addressing high-priority hazards like flooding and strengthening our community’s resilience against future disasters. 🌍💪

Municipal and county officials have worked together to develop projects aimed at making our community safer, and we need YOUR input to shape a better future.

📅 The draft plan is available for review on the Rensselaer County Bureau of Public Safety website. You can submit your feedback from today to April 11th, 2025.

👉 Your voice matters! Share your thoughts and help us create a more resilient County. For any comments or questions, please reach out to the planning team at Jeanne.Bunting@iem.com .
