Staff urges ICS training, offers to follow up with councilors who haven't completed courses
Summary
Chief West listed ICS courses (100, 200, 700, 800) and said staff will follow up by email with councilors who haven't finished recommended trainings and proposed local exercises and an EMI visit.
Chief West reviewed recommended incident command system (ICS) trainings — referenced in the session as ICS 100, 200, 700 and other courses — and said they help elected officials understand their roles. Staff asked councilors to complete these online courses and said they would email anyone who still needed them.
Council members discussed returning to EMI for a multi‑day exercise and doing local training exercises so council and staff can practice coordination. Chief West offered to help organize follow‑up training and to provide a list of who has completed courses so the city can close gaps before the next exercise.
