MEMORANDUM
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT
Date: November 1, 2022
To: Mayor and Common Council
From: Chief Brad Bowen, Emergency Management Director
Mark Frye, City Administrator
Re: Consider/Act on All Hazards Mitigation Plan from Waukesha County
RELATES TO THE STRATEGIC PLAN
Strategic Plan:
Section I: Provide a Safe and Secure Community
Part B: Provide Quality Fire and EMS Services
BACKGROUND
We all worked together to submit various items that at a local level have been identified for hazard mitigation. We
also submitted a number of items under the Western Lakes Emergency Management. By adopting this plan at a
local level we are eligible to apply for various grants to assist with funding these mitigation projects.
ADDITIONAL ANALYSIS
Adopting the plan by resolution makes municipalities eligible to apply for grant funds for mitigation
projects. Specifically, to be eligible for the next funding cycle through the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program
(HMGP), the Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities (BRIC) program, and the Flood Mitigation
Assistance (FMA) program, the plan must be adopted. The application period for these grants run from 30
September 2022 through 27 January 2023. Mitigation projects listed in the plan may be eligible for funding
through these grant programs, but only if the plan is adopted by the municipality.
The full 678-page plan can be found by visiting the Waukesha County Emergency Management website. In the
lower left corner under "Quick Links", click on “2021 Hazard Mitigation Plan” and then select “Hazard Mitigation
Plan”.
A five-page Executive Overview of the plan is attached to provide some background information. Chief Bowen
has also included a selection of 19-pages from the plan that are specific to our area.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
None.

• The hazard identification and profiling in the hazard mitigation plan addresses the
following hazards considered to be of paramount importance within Waukesha County and
listed in descending order of general risk to the county. It is important to note that the
Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 requires that all “natural hazards” be addressed in this plan.
Hazard impacts were assessed in six categories: population exposure, catastrophic potential
of the hazard, property damages, property exposure, future development trends, and
economic potential of the hazard. The probability of occurrence of a hazard is indicated by a
probability factor based on the likelihood of a “significant” incident occurring on an annual
basis.

Incident
• One of the bedrock principles of emergency management is to approach issues from an all-
hazards perspective. The planning committee used the all hazards approach to identify
mitigation goals for the county and all of its municipalities. The purpose of the hazard
mitigation plan is to identify hazard areas, assess the risks, analyze the potential for
mitigation and recommend mitigation strategies, where appropriate. Potential mitigation
projects will be reviewed using criteria that stress the intrinsic value of the increased safety
for people and property in relation to the monetary costs to achieve this (i.e., a cost-
benefit analysis). With that in mind, the planning goals for this entire plan, as determined by
the mitigation planning committee are:
MITIGATION GOALS
1. To preserve life and minimize the potential for injuries or death.
• Identify natural and manmade hazards that threaten life in Waukesha County.
2. To preserve and enhance the quality of life throughout Waukesha County by identifying
potential property damage risks and recommending appropriate mitigation strategies to
minimize potential property damage.
• Implement programs and projects that assist in protecting lives by making homes, businesses,
essential facilities, critical infrastructure, and other property more resistant to losses from all
hazards.
• Improve hazard assessment information to make recommendations for discouraging new
development and encouraging preventive measures for existing development in areas
vulnerable to natural hazards.
• Protect life and property by implementing state-of-the-art standards, codes and construction
procedures.
3. To promote countywide coordination, planning, and training that avoids transferring the risk
from one community to an adjacent community, where appropriate.
• Continue developing and strengthening inter-jurisdictional coordination and cooperation in the
area of emergency services.
• Continue to support and develop comprehensive mutual aid agreements.
• Continue providing county and municipal emergency services with training and equipment to
address all identified hazards.
4. To identify potential funding sources for mitigation projects and form the basis for FEMA
project grant applications.
5. Increase public awareness

Waukesha County All Hazard Mitigation Plan | Executive Overview
• Increase public awareness of existing threats and the means to reduce these threats by
conducting educational and outreach programs to all the various community groups in the
county.
• Provide informational items, partnership opportunities and funding resource information to
assist in implementing mitigation activities.
• The heart of the mitigation plan is the mitigation strategy, which serves as the long-term
blueprint for reducing the potential losses identified in the risk assessment. The mitigation
strategy describes how the county will accomplish the overall purpose, or mission, of the
planning process. In this plan, mitigation actions/projects were updated/amended,
identified, evaluated, and prioritized.
o A total of 209 mitigation projects were identified for Waukesha County and
participating jurisdictions.
o 113 new mitigation projects were identified as part of this update.
