COUNTY COMMISSIONERS AND HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN

  

Washington County Judge John Brieden says it’s time for the county to renew its Hazard Mitigation Plan with the Federal Emergency Management Agency and that’s what the county commissioners will do when they meet Tuesday at the courthouse.

Judge Brieden says they have been working on the plan to deal with disasters for over a year, something they need to do so the county can access FEMA Funds in the case of a disaster.

Tuesday’s meeting of the County Commissioners will begin with a public hearing with the cities of Brenham and Burton for comments on the plan.

The County Commissioners will also approve Charles Seely as the Washington County Agri-Life Extension Agent  for 4-H and Youth Development.

They are also expected to approve a contract for the Department of State Health Services and Washington County for a grant from the DSHS to the Washington County EMS for the purchase of a cardiac compression device and a cardiac monitor/defibrillator. 

The Washington County Commissioners meet Tuesday morning at nine at the courthouse.
