The San Luis Obispo Department of Planning and Building is updating its Hazard Mitigation Plan.

The department says this is the first time the plan will include all jurisdictions in the county. It was last updated in 2014.

Organizers say the plan is important due to recent natural disasters in California.

On Tuesday, community members were able to rank the risks they felt would be most catastrophic within San Luis Obispo County, including fires, earthquakes, and sea level rise hazards.

The draft of the plan will be published in the summer.
