FR City of Seattle Disaster Recovery Framework
Summary
The resource outlines Seattle’s pre-disaster recovery planning framework that is centred around a vision for recovery that strives to make the city more efficient, sustainable, and resilient. The framework opens with Seattle’s Vision for Recovery and outlines the city’s core values and opportunities for Building Back Better before discussing governance, financing, and engagement strategies within the city. The framework outlines recovery through seven recovery support functions that span all of society.
Why is this Useful
This recovery framework offers an exceptional example of how pre-disaster recovery guided by Recovery Vision can be completed. Guiding questions are provided to show how recovery can be monitored and tracked post-event. A limitation is that the guide is long without a clear starting point for communities beginning to build their own disaster recovery framework. The framework may be hard for smaller or less resourced communities to follow.
