6:00-7:30 Special Guest / Emergency Preparedness Meeting:
Representatives from Multnomah County Emergency Management, along with Chief Lake and island preparedness expert Michael Rubenstein, will share information about preparing for local hazards, alert and warning systems, evacuation procedures, and ways we can be better prepared as individuals, households, and neighborhoods.
The session will also provide an opportunity to identify emergency preparedness needs specific to Sauvie Island. This community input will help guide the development of an island-specific preparedness plan, including the potential establishment of a Resilience Hub in the Sauvie Island School and Sauvie Island Grange area.
