This report tells how your city and county can move from formulating seismic safety policies to actions that reduce seismic risk. It describes some measures that you can take to address ten issues pertaining to seismic safety. The issues focus on the physical development of a community which is an important determinant of its vulnerability. The objective is to define those things that you, as an official of local government, can do before the earthquake strikes that will directly reduce damage. Measures to improve emergency response and recovery are very important and must be taken by all communities; however, they are not emphasized in this report. The focus is on those actions which can lessen earthquake damage and, therefore, reduce the requirements for emergency response and recovery.
