... • Must describe outcomes of more resilient communities in more meaningful terms such as codes adopted and enforced, community understand ing, land-use plans that consider earthquake hazard, that measures taken before earthquakes will have a multihazard application • Community strategy could "require" a comprehensive school earthquake safety element (awareness, curriculum, preparedness, building analysis and mitigation)
