Pasco County Local Mitigation Strategy (LMS)
The LMS is a guide used to implement pre-disaster mitigation and post-disaster recovery initiatives.
The LMS Plan is an evolving document with annual updates supplied to the State of Florida that prepare the plan for the FEMA 5-year update. All updates and suggestions are made by an advisory group called the Local Mitigation Strategy Working Group, who consists of public, private, and community representatives who meet quarterly to supply projects, prepare each FEMA 5-year update.
