Our Local disaster management plan (PDF 7 MB) outlines how to prevent, prepare for, respond to and recover from a disaster or emergency.

The plan makes sure we develop strategies that will reduce the impact of a disaster, including natural disasters or disasters caused by people. The plan considers all types of disasters, including disasters that disrupt essential services or involve an attack against the state.
