Emergency Preparedness Commission Meeting

The seven members of the Mill Valley Emergency Preparedness Commission, chaired by Tiana Wimmer, meet on the second Thursday of the month. The role of the Commission is to assist the city to prepare its businesses, residents and schools for a natural disaster by developing risk awareness, providing safety and risk mitigation education and by advocating the need for ongoing emergency and disaster preparedness. The Commission also provides recommendations and support to the City on aspects of disaster impact mitigation, response planning, and recovery processes. 

At meetings members focus on organizing community groups, including residential neighborhood associations, schools and businesses. They also promote Community Emergency Response Training and work to help educate residents on ways to be self-sufficient during a disaster. For more information on the commission or to retrieve emergency preparedness materials please see the City of Mill Valley website.
