Introduction

The project is designed to ensure equal opportunities to ensure that the people have

access to essential resources, including healthcare, food and water, communication and

transport systems, banking and finance services, and government facilities. The project also

ensures that the residents are protected from threats to life and the destruction of property.

The project for the Mitigation and recovery of the city is majorly to foresee the providence of

essential resources to the city's inhabitants (Ivanova et al, 2020). It is the essential resource

that will help achieve the equality aimed at by this project. Different essential resources play

a role in ensuring that equality is achieved and that there is comfort in the lifestyle that people

are leading.

The project will ensure the availability of the essential resources for the survival of

humanity by exploiting the locally available resources. Using available resources such as

water for irrigation to ensure food security and available architectural services in constructing

facilities such as proper housing and infrastructure will see the city's development suit its

expectations as a capital city. The project will utilize the available resources such as land to

ensure that the city's needs are catered for.

Planning on Mitigation and recovery measures

The mitigation process begins by ensuring the communication and technology sectors

are advanced. By ensuring the advancement of technology, it is easier to detect the

possibilities of occurrences of hazardous circumstances. Technology makes it possible to

approximate the period at which a hazardous occurrence is likely to occur and hence facilitate

the avoidance of the situation (Belleville et al, 2018). Proper communication plays a role in

ensuring that there is relaying of information to inhabitants to undertake strategies to protect

them from being victims of the hazard. For instance, in the case of tornadoes, the inhabitants

can use proper technology and communication to provide information for them to relocate

during periods in which the tornadoes are expected.

In the mitigation and recovery attempt of the city, there is a need for sufficient

planning to ensure that the intended results are achieved. Planning should cover all the threat

areas and provide possible solutions to solve the situations in question. Planning should

include the resources to facilitate the mitigation process (Belleville et al, 2018). In the

Mitigation and recovery of the city, there is a need for the government to develop strategies

to advance the research and technology of the city. The advancement of research enables

accurate predictions regarding occurrences of natural calamities such as earthquakes and

tornadoes. Plans on advancement in technology such as seismology technology to reduce

threats brought by natural calamities such as earthquakes.

Plans for the security of the city are important. The project includes the strategies to

put in place to ensure that the citizens are protected from attacks from terrorists. The city can

ensure that the borders are protected by ensuring there are members of the security agent that

guard the town's borders against terrorist attacks. Other plans to promote the town's security

are enacting rules to govern the settlement in the town. The town has a multiracial settlement;

there is a need to enact laws to enable peaceful coexistence in the town. There is also a need

to have active patrolling police to promote security (Belleville et al, 2018). For security, plans

on having an active police unit in the town are essential. Diplomatic relations can also be

established with the potential rivalries in the city to prevent the occurrences of the attacks.

In the case of floods, the city can construct floodwalls and evacuation routes. The

strategy is an attempt to spread the channels through which the water flows to prevent the

3

occurrence of floods (Fawzy et al, 2020) . The government can put up different channels

through which the water can be drained other that the natural channels that the water takes.

The channels will help with better drainage of the excess water, reducing floods. As a

prevention measure, there is a need for the government to discourage settlement near places

that may lead to exposure to destructing as a result of flooding. The government can also opt

for permanent relocation as a measure against flooding. Relocation is a solution in scenarios

where the artificial trenches have little or no impact on better drainage. The architectural

designs in the town can also be improved, that is, by having the houses in the flood-prone

areas raised. Both drainage and wind hazards can be prevented by covering vegetation such

as trees (Meyer et al, 2020). Vegetation will help absorb potentially excess water, which may

lead to flooding. Trees are also important in scenarios of strong winds, whereby they help

curb the speed through which the wind moves. Vegetation also acts as a barrier by preventing

damage to infrastructure such as buildings.

The Mitigation of calamities brought by seismic calamities needs proper consideration

and research. Unlike all other calamities affecting the town, the prediction of seismic

occurrences needs investment. The town needs to research seismology. The town needs to

pull up resources to facilitate extensive research on the causes of seismic occurrences such as

earthquakes. The research will help map the areas prone to seismic occurrences. It is also

essential to invest in technology to curb come up with strategies to control situations resulting

from earthquakes and related seismic forces. The technology and research enable predictions

that are at least accurate to help the population avoid the harshness of the impacts that can

arise from the situation (Belleville et al, 2018). The seismic occurrences mitigation is one of

the hardest ones to execute as its occurrences depend on predictions that are not always

accurate.

Conclusion

 5

To have the town recover its potential, there are different sectors on which emphasis

is necessary. They include the establishment of technology. Technology can help in most

aspects to recover the town; technology impacts architecture and relay of information.

Technology is the core aspect that all other mitigation processes depend on. Mitigation of the

town is essential to help it develop as a capital city. The importance of guaranteed safety by

inhabitants necessitates the mitigation procedures. All the processes on mitigation are aimed

at provision of equal access by all inhabitants in the region.
