Evaluating and Updating the Plan Evaluation At the conclusion of the Annual Implementation Meeting, the Local Mitigation Officer will lead a discussion with the Planning Team on the success (or failure) of the Mitigation Plan to meet the plan goals. The results of that discussion will be added to the Evaluation portion of the Annual Implementation Report and inclusion in the 5-year update to the Plan. Efforts will be made immediately by the Local Mitigation Officer to address any failed plan goals. Formal Update Process As identified above, the Mitigation Action Items will be monitored for status on an annual basis as well as an evaluation of the Plan’s goals. The Local Mitigation Officer or designee will be responsible for contacting the Planning Team members and organizing the annual meeting which will take place annually during the month of the Plan’s approval. Planning Team members will also be responsible for participating in the formal update to the Plan every fifth year of the planning cycle. The Planning Team will begin the update process with a review of the plan’s goals and mitigation action items to determine their relevance to changing situations within the City as well as changes in State or Federal policy, and to ensure they are addressing current and expected conditions. The Planning Team will also review the Plan’s Risk Assessment to determine if this information should be updated or modified, given any new available data. The coordinating organizations responsible for the various action items will report on the status of their projects, including the success of various implementation processes, difficulties encountered, success of coordination efforts, and which strategies should be revised. Amendments and updates will be made to the Mitigation Actions Matrix and other sections in the Plan as deemed necessary by the Planning Team.
