EMA reports floodplain filing, disaster declaration template and urges river-ice caution
Summary
EMA reviewed a written report, said a Jan. 24 Declaration of Disaster Emergency was prepared, submitted the 2026 Floodplain Management report, and warned residents about river ice; New Covenant Church is seeking generators but funding is a barrier.
Greg Gruver, EMA director, presented the EMA written report at the Feb. 10 meeting, saying officials signed a Jan. 24 Declaration of Disaster Emergency (kept on file) in case it was needed during the recent snow event and that the 2026 Floodplain Management report was submitted.
Gruver told council the updated Operations Plan is ready for signatures and reminded residents to be cautious, saying, "be aware of the ice on the river, when melting starts." He noted New Covenant Church is working to obtain generators but that funding is a problem and that Red Cross shelter status does not require a church to have a generator because EMA maintains generators if needed. The report also included upcoming training dates and routine EMA coordination items.
