"Emergency preparedness - it's everyone's responsibility!"

The Office of Emergency Management is responsible for assessing community preparation to reduce the consequences of and respond to an emergency or disaster event. It does so by developing, implementing, and maintaining emergency preparedness plans; it also supports emergency response activities by coordinating resources and personnel from the Emergency Operations Center.

Through planning, training, and exercising, our goal is the protection of lives, property, and the environment from disasters of any nature.
