Commission tackles solid-waste enforcement, E9-1-1 preparedness and Hazard Mitigation planning
Summary
Compliance staff reported third-Saturday countywide cleanups and citations to enforce solid-waste registration; commissioners authorized the Emergency Management Director to develop a hazardous-mitigation plan and approved steps to advance E9-1-1 installation and public-safety equipment.
Multiple meetings included updates from compliance and emergency-management staff about solid-waste registration, county-wide cleanups, and emergency communications.
Compliance Officer William Cook described door-to-door sign-ups and issuance of citations for illegal dumping, and he reminded commissioners of the third-Saturday countywide cleanup program. Emergency Management Director William Gunn reported on outdoor warning-system installations (weather delays noted) and grant applications for shelter and communications equipment; the Commission authorized the Emergency Management Director to develop the county’s Hazard Mitigation Plan and accepted federal-state grant adjustments to support planning and equipment needs.
Separately, the Commission authorized measures to support E9-1-1 implementation and awarded a contract/authorization for related equipment and security improvements to the Annex and Courthouse.
