Hazard Mitigation Plan Comprehensive Plan

Develop and apply a resilience scorecard:

1. To spatially evaluate the coordination of local networks of plans at the neighborhood scale.

2. To spatially assess the degree to which the network of plans targets areas most physically and socially vulnerable.

Scientific Contributions: New NSF CRISP 2019-23

• What are the social and economic disruptions caused by cascading failures of interdependent infrastructures?

• How well do networks of plans account for possible failures of interdependent infrastructures?

• How does the strength of neighborhood social networks among interest groups influence plan policies that guide infrastructure investments?

Research Work and Accomplishments

CRC 4th Annual Meeting

March 27-28, 2019The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill

• City of Norfolk, Paul Shea, Senior Planner

• Interactions: Training webinar, on-site visit, 10 technical assistances

teleconferences Norfolk.

• Outcomes: Revised network of plans; modified zoning ordinance, included location

criteria in network of plans; two successful proposals from HUD totally $140 million

• After action report on research utilization

• City of Nashua, Justin Kates, Director Emergency Management

• Interactions: Collaboration with NIST, Training webinar, on-site visit, ongoing

monthly technical assistance

• Outcomes: proposals funded by Nat’l League of Cities.

End User Engagement

Norfolk Highlights: Project Impacts

“The Resilience Scorecard was a great tool to allow us to evaluate our existing plans and policies.” (George Homewood, FAICP, CFM, Planning Director, City of Norfolk)

Outcomes• Revised network of plans

• Modified zoning ordinance• Changed CIP infrastructure location criteria• Choice Neighborhood Implementation Grant• National Disaster Resilience Grant

• Building resilience: linking built environment, socially marginalized people, and natural environmental systems

St. Paul’s Neighborhood Revitalization

Norfolk Resilience Park


• NY RISING-Paul Beyer, NY Dept of State; and Coreena Coveallo, NY Dept. of Homeland Security, FEMA Nat’l Mitigation Program• Interactions: multiple teleconferences, webinar to county mitigation planners in NY State• Expected Outcome: Apply PIRS to Sullivan County, NY

• NIST• Interactions: approx. 10 tele-conference calls to coordination.• Expected Outcomes: Couple PIRS with the Community Resilience Planning Guide (CRPG) developed by

the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in a manner that allows the two products to be used by community planners in a joint and reinforcing manner.

• TX Sea Grant Community Resilience Collaborative, Heather Wade, Director• Interactions: Bi-weekly collaboration to translate research to planning practice• Outcome: Employed staff planner to train mitigation planners in Texas coast communities• Expected Outcome: Co-apply Scorecard in San Patricio County, Corpus Christi

End User Engagement



• ASFPM, Chad Berginnis, Executive Director• Interactions: Joint panel May 2019 conference; Texas A&M and

Nashua• Proposed Outcomes: Trainings, CFM credit, placed on ASFPM

website• Other professional association

• APA, Jim Schwab• Natural Hazard Mitigation Association

• Trainings & Conferences • FEMA Prep Talk, January 2018 • Texas Sea Grant Program, 1st training February 2018 • National Hurricane Conference, April 2018• FEMA Community Planning & Capacity Building, June 2018 • City of Nashua Resilience Planning Workshop with NIST, June 2018 • Louisiana Sea Grant Program, July 2018 • Texas Sea Grant Program, 2nd training November 2018 • NY Rising and FEMA webinar, December 2018

End User Engagement



Develop an instructional curriculum:• PIRS Guidebook for local practitioners• Links to webinars, lectures, and workshops given by the Texas A&M team• Slides for lectures• Summaries of real world examples of community applications of PIRS for

practitioners and policy makers.• Summaries (3 pgs.) of peer review research publications that focus on the process

of community utilizations of PIRS and new capabilities of PIRS.• Interactive website to include all of the above.

Transition to End Users


Technical Assistance Tasks:

1) Score plan integration

2) Assess Social & Physical Vulnerability

3) Identify conflicts and opportunities

Participatory Tasks:

1) Willing partner communities: contribute staff time, data

2) Staff participate in training sessions

3) Self-evaluate plans, seek public input, draft revisions

Anticipated Project Impact



How has / will your project be transitioned to end users?

1. Develop an instructional curriculum, with case studies, that teaches planners how to use the coupled products correctly and effectively.

2. Offer certificates to practitioners through professional association (APA, ASFMP etc.) who successfully complete the instructional curriculum.

3. Add credits to FEMA’s NFIP Community Rating System if communities apply PIRS.

4. Couple PIRS with the Community Resilience Planning Guide (CRPG) developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in a manner that allows use by community planners in a joint and reinforcing manner.
