San Mateo County Local Hazard Mitigation Plan (LHMP) Draft Open for Public Comment

May 18, 2026

San Mateo County’s draft Local Hazard Mitigation Plan (LHMP) is open for public comment. The LHMP identifies our risks from wildfires, flooding, earthquakes, severe weather, other natural hazards, and outlines actions to reduce damage before disasters happen. It also keeps San Mateo County’s 20 cities, unincorporated communities, and special districts eligible for federal hazard mitigation funding. The county wants input from residents, businesses, and community organizations.
