The City of Lefors participates in the Gray County Hazard Mitigation Plan. Hazard Mitigation is a proactive effort to identify actions that can be taken to reduce the dangers to life and property from natural hazard events.

Some of the grant programs available include: Pre-Disaster Mitigation Competive (PDM-C), Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP), Flood Mitigation Assistance (FMA). A hazard mitigation plan assesses the community's risks and vulnerabilities to hatural hazard events such as flooding, winter storms, thunderstorms, wildfires, earthquakes, and hurricanes.
