Emergency Management

Emergency Management is a function included within the Special Services Division. The function is managed by a sworn sergeant (Emergency Services Manager). Emergency Management utilizes an all-hazard, county-wide approach to minimize the impact of natural and human-caused incidents. We identify hazards, develop emergency and mitigation plans, coordinate response activities, and train incident personnel. We work with cities, special districts, community organization’s and regional partners to promote emergency preparedness and improve incident response.
