Emergency Manager proposes incident-command course; commissioners request 20-minute overview

Board of Cherokee County Commissioners · January 17, 2025

Summary

Emergency Manager Matt Haviland requested the Board set a G0402 incident command course; he said the full course would run about three hours. Chair Myra Carlisle Frazier and Commissioner Cory Moates said the full course would not benefit them, and the Board asked Haviland to prepare a 20-minute overview for a future meeting.

Emergency Manager Matt Haviland told the Board he would like the county to "set in on" a G0402 incident command course and said the full course would be "around 3 hours long." The request was discussed at the Jan. 17, 2025 meeting in Columbus.

Chair Myra Carlisle Frazier said she did not expect to be in the field during a disaster and did not feel the full course would benefit her; Commissioner Cory Moates said he has already taken numerous incident command courses and similarly did not see the full session as useful for him. The Board asked Haviland to develop a 20-minute overview presentation for a future meeting.
