Emergency Management

The goal of Emergency Management is to prepare the City to respond to, recover from and mitigate against natural and man-made emergencies and disasters. Emergency Management works with local, state and federal government partners, as well as non-governmental organizations to achieve this goal. Emergency Management maintains the City’s Emergency Operations Center in a state of constant readiness, and conducts exercises to test and continuously revise the City’s Emergency Operations Plan.
