Community Classifications
The classifications listed below relate to the community’s ability to provide effective services to lessen its
vulnerability to the hazards identified. These classifications can be viewed as a gauge of the community’s
capabilities in all phases of emergency management (preparedness, response, recovery, and mitigation) and are
used as an underwriting parameter for determining the costs of various forms of insurance. The Community
Rating System (CRS) class applies to flood insurance while the Building Code Effectiveness Grading Schedule
(BCEGS) and Public Protection classifications apply to standard property insurance. CRS classifications range
on a scale of 1 to 10 with class 1 being the best possible classification and class 10 representing no

policies and four claims totaling over $38,000. None of the policies are repetitive loss or severe repetitive loss
properties.
Integration of Hazard Mitigation into Existing and Future Planning Mechanisms
It is the intention of this municipality to incorporate hazard mitigation planning and natural hazard risk
reduction as an integral component of ongoing municipal operations. The following textual summary
identifies relevant planning mechanisms and programs that have been/will be incorporated into municipal
procedures, which may include former mitigation initiatives that have become continuous/on-going programs
now considered mitigation “capabilities:”
Section 9.14: Village of Hagman
DMA 2000 Hazard Mitigation Plan Update – Montgomery County, New York 9.14-9 January 2016
Planning
The Village continuous to develop, enhance, and implement existing emergency plans. Additionally, the
Village supports the implementation, monitoring, maintenance, and updating of the current HMP. The Village
is part of the Montgomery County New York Community Rising Resiliency Plan. In 2004, the County
updated their Comprehensive Plan.
Ordinances and Enforcement
The Village participates in NFIP and has a Flood Damage Prevention Ordinance. The Village also enforces
building, zoning and subdivision ordinances.
Administration and Operations
The Village maintains mutual aid agreements with neighboring communities and fire departments. The village
of Hagaman currently has Robert Krom as the mayor, with several other trustees serving as a legislature.
9.14.6 Mitigation Strategy and Prioritization
This section discusses past mitigations actions and status, describes proposed hazard mitigation initiatives, and
prioritization.

Section 9.14: Village of Hagman
DMA 2000 Hazard Mitigation Plan Update – Montgomery County, New York 9.14-11 January 2016
Completed Mitigation Initiatives not Identified in the Previous Mitigation Strategy
At the time of this plan update, the Village has not identified any mitigation initiatives that were completed in
the municipality but not identified in the 2009 HMP.
Proposed Hazard Mitigation Initiatives for the Plan Update
The Village of Hagaman identified mitigation initiatives they would like to pursue in the future. Some of these
initiatives may be previous actions carried forward for this plan update. These initiatives are dependent upon
available funding (grants and local match availability) and may be modified or omitted at any time based on
the occurrence of new hazard events and changes in municipal priorities. Table 9.14-11 identifies the
municipality’s updated local mitigation strategy.
As discussed in Section 6, 14 evaluation/prioritization criteria are used to complete the prioritization of
mitigation initiatives. For each new mitigation action, a numeric rank is assigned (-1, 0, or 1) for each of the
14 evaluation criteria to assist with prioritizing actions as ‘High,’ ‘Medium,’ or ‘Low.’ The table below
summarizes the evaluation of each mitigation initiative, listed by Action Number.
Table 9.14-12 provides a summary of the prioritization of all proposed mitigation initiatives for the plan
update.

Costs: Benefits: Where actual project costs cannot reasonably be established at this time: Low Possible to fund under existing budget. Project is part of, or can be part of an existing on-going program. Medium Could budget for under existing work plan, but would require a reapportionment of the budget or a budget amendment, or the cost of the project would have to be spread over multiple years. High Would require an increase in revenue via an alternative source (i.e., bonds, grants, fee increases) to implement. Existing funding levels are not adequate to cover the costs of the proposed project.
High > $100,000 Where numerical project benefits cannot reasonably be established at this time: Low Long-term benefits of the project are difficult to quantify in the short term. Medium Project will have a long-term impact on the reduction of risk exposure to
life and property, or project will provide an immediate reduction in the risk exposure to property.
High Project will have an immediate impact on the reduction of risk exposure to life and property.
Mitigation Category:
Local Plans and Regulations (LPR) – These actions include government authorities, policies or codes that influence the way land and buildings are being developed and built.
Structure and Infrastructure Project (SIP)- These actions involve modifying existing structures and infrastructure to protect them from a hazard or remove them from a hazard area.
This could apply to public or private structures as well as critical facilities and infrastructure. This type of action also involves projects to construct manmade structures to reduce the
impact of hazards.
Natural Systems Protection (NSP) – These are actions that minimize damage and losses, and also preserve or restore the functions of natural systems.
Education and Awareness Programs (EAP) – These are actions to inform and educate citizens, elected officials, and property owners about hazards and potential ways to mitigate them.
These actions may also include participation in national programs, such as StormReady and Firewise Communities
CRS Category: Preventative Measures (PR) - Government, administrative or regulatory actions, or processes that influence the way land and buildings are developed and built. Examples include
planning and zoning, floodplain local laws, capital improvement programs, open space preservation, and storm water management regulations. Property Protection (PP) - These actions include public activities to reduce hazard losses or actions that involve (1) modification of existing buildings or structures to protect them from
a hazard or (2) removal of the structures from the hazard area. Examples include acquisition, elevation, relocation, structural retrofits, storm shutters, and shatter-resistant glass. Public Information (PI) - Actions to inform and educate citizens, elected officials, and property owners about hazards and potential ways to mitigate them. Such actions include
outreach projects, real estate disclosure, hazard information centers, and educational programs for school-age children and adults. Natural Resource Protection (NR) - Actions that minimize hazard loss and also preserve or restore the functions of natural systems. These actions include sediment and erosion control,
stream corridor restoration, watershed management, forest and vegetation management, and wetland restoration and preservation. Structural Flood Control Projects (SP) - Actions that involve the construction of structures to reduce the impact of a hazard. Such structures include dams, setback levees, floodwalls,
retaining walls, and safe rooms. Emergency Services (ES) - Actions that protect people and property during and immediately following a disaster or hazard event. Services include warning systems, emergency response
services, and the protection of essential facilities

DMA 2000 Hazard Mitigation Plan Update – Montgomery County, New York 9.14-18 January 2016
Name of Jurisdiction: Village of Hagaman
Number: Hagaman-2
Mitigation Action/Initiative: Natural Gas Backup Generator
Assessing the Risk
Hazard(s) addressed Hurricane, Nor’Easter, Severe Storm, Severe Winter Storm, Earthquake
Specific problem being
mitigated
On behalf of the Hagaman Volunteer Fire Department, we are applying for this
grant to help towards installing a new 100kw natural gas backup/standby generator
for our fire station. Our area was heavily impacted by Irene and Lee.
Evaluation of Potential Actions/Projects
Actions/Projects Considered
(name of project and reason
for not selecting):
1. Tree Trimming. Remove tree branches that may fall onto power lines causing
power outages. This is currently being done as existing Village maintenance to
protect feeder lines but doesn’t help with primary or secondary lines off Village
property.
2. Bury Power Lines. This option is not being pursued as it is cost prohibitive.
The Village does not have the legal authority to bury the lines.
3. Urge Special Treatment from Power Company. Meet with the executive team
and urge them to take steps necessary to prevent power failures to Village Hall.
This is not the best alternative because it relies on others to address the
problem. The solution remains outside the control of the Village.
Though we do get priority, the system is complex and does not provide a
direct connection to a sub-station.
(Another alternative could be to install a secondary electrical feed from an
independent section of the local grid. This is typically technically infeasible and
cost-prohibitive.)
Action/Project Intended for Implementation
Description of Selected
Action/Project
Purchase and install a new 100kw Natural Gas Standby/Backup Generator. The
generator will also have an automatic switch which, in the event of an outage,
would provide uninterrupted power to our facility.
