• Emergency Communication
◦ Work with local Sheriff and Fire teams to develop formal emergency
communication protocol with focus on primary and secondary public
communication system that crosses social, age, and generational ability to
receive emergency info that works even when power and cell towers are not
operating; redundant and diverse tools to consistently reach public with current
info
CM New goal recommended by EPC
• Evacuation Planning
◦ Work with local Sheriff and Fire teams to create playbook of detailed pre-
incident evacuation plans including pre-prepared traffic evacuation
plans/scenarios, including traffic engineering capacity, pre-defined routes,
estimated time frame to alert/evacuate, trigger points, that can adapt to road
closures in fast paced disaster; preplan evacuation procedure
◦ Identify residential developments in hazard area that do not have at least 2
emergency evacuation routes. There are many neighborhoods along PV Drive
East and in Portuguese Bend that only have one ingress/egress and border
wildland/canyons, which create an additional hazard for getting fire
trucks/personnel in to the area when simultaneously evacuating residents.
◦ Include local HOA(s) in cross-city Functional Emergency Prep Exercises, such as
partnering with local HOA to stage a mock evacuation drill
CM New goal recommended by EPC
• Wildfire “hardening”
◦ Identify state grants/tax incentives for:
▪ Residents interested in fire hardening homes (roofs, vent screens, etc.)
▪ Upgrade of cell towers as required to operate without power for 8 to 48 hrs
▪ Utilities fire harden transmission infrastructure, including options in addition
to undergrounding lines (e.g., insulation)
▪ Residential power back-up (generators, etc.)
▪ Fire hardening of strategically located Public Access buildings that can be used
by residents if required to shelter in place
