Increased occurrences of extreme and unpredictable weather will inevitably result in more emergency situations. With that, it is essential that the City’s Emergency Measures team and the wider community are prepared and have the necessary resources to respond. This theme focuses on building upon the extensive efforts already underway to support residents during emergencies. These actions will endeavor to foster strong neighbourhood and community supports that will function during emergencies, establishing and regularly updating clear, effective emergency policies and procedures, and ensuring a network of accessible, welcoming reception centres and emergency shelters.
