RECOMMENDATION
Council is asked to choose from three separate dates, September 27th, October 4th, or October 18th from 5:30 - 9:30 PM in order to attend training on NIMS so that we get closer to being fully NIMS compliant in our community.
BACKGROUND (Consistency with Adopted Plans and Policies, if applicable)
The National Incident Management System (NIMS) guides all levels of government, nongovernmental organizations, and the private sector to work together to prevent, protect against, mitigate, respond to and recover from incidents. NIMS provides stakeholders across the whole community with the shared vocabulary, systems and processes to successfully deliver the capabilities described in the National Preparedness System. NIMS defines operational systems that guide how personnel work together during incidents.
ALTERNATIVES
City Council may:
- Approve to be involved in the NIMS emergency preparedness, management and incident response training, or,
- Not Approve to be involved in the NIMS emergency preparedness, management and incident response training.
FISCAL EFFECTS
To be determined.
