Tuesday, October 17 at 6:30 p.m.
Hilyard Community Center, 2580 Hilyard Street, Eugene
What are public agencies doing to protect the South Hills?
What route will I take to escape a wildfire?
In case of wildfire, what are the priorities of the fire department?
In the vulnerable South Hills, these and other questions need to be considered. Recently, the community of Lahaina was forced to evacuate when a devastating wildfire destroyed that town. It is our responsibility to be informed and prepared for appropriate action.
Please join us for a community discussion on emergency response. Panelists from various agencies will explain their role. There will be time for questions. To send questions for the panelists in advance, use this google form.
Panelists:
- Matt Keating, our Eugene City Councilor
- Sierra Anderson, City of Eugene Emergency Management Program Manager
- Cary Lieberman, Executive Director at Greenhill Humane Society (and working on disaster safety for animals in Lane County), Lane County Community Organizations that Aid in Disaster (COAD)
- Janina Rager, Eugene Police Department Community Engagement
