BACKGROUND:
Background
The City of Deltona is vulnerable to an array of natural hazards that can cause the loss of life and damage to public and private properties. Beginning in 2000 the City worked closely with Volusia County and other multiplicities for the development of a multi-jurisdictional local mitigation strategy. An update was completed in 2009, 2020 and most recently in 2025. The Florida Division of Emergency Management has completed the State review of the Volusia County LMS update for compliance with the federal hazard mitigation planning standards. Based on that review and comments, Volusia County developed and submitted all necessary plan revisions. FDEM has determined that the LMS plan is compliance with federal standards, subject to formal community adoption, for participating jurisdictions, including the City of Deltona.
