Public information distribution<br />

after a disaster. Experience has<br />

taught city officials that accurate<br />

information to <strong>the</strong> public is vital<br />

during and after a disaster event.<br />

Understanding that telephone,<br />

television and internet services<br />

are not always available in many<br />

events, establishing a central<br />

location for information such as<br />

shelters, food banks, waste<br />

removal locations, etc. will aid <strong>the</strong><br />

public and ensure accurate<br />

information is distributed. A<br />

secondary location would be<br />

established in <strong>the</strong> event <strong>the</strong><br />

primary location is unavailable.<br />

The City of Spring Hill will<br />

establish a primary and secondary<br />

location to serve as a distribution<br />

point for public information. City<br />

staff will work to provide as much<br />

information as possible on topics<br />

specific to <strong>the</strong> event and have this<br />

information readily available in a<br />

paper format.<br />

Portable generator for City Hall. An<br />

electrical power outage to City<br />

Hall would reduce our ability to<br />

provide public safety and<br />

Emergency Management services<br />

to <strong>the</strong> public. Currently City Hall<br />

has no source of emergency<br />

power and this would provide a<br />

back-up to conventional electrical<br />

service to <strong>the</strong> building. As an<br />

alternative solution, <strong>the</strong> installation<br />

of a permanent generator would<br />

be more desirable, however we<br />

currently are in <strong>the</strong> early planning<br />

stages of planning a new facility<br />

for City Hall. Should a new<br />

building be approved, <strong>the</strong> need for<br />

a permanent generator will be<br />

shifted to <strong>the</strong> new facility. The<br />

generator/trailer will be stored at<br />

<strong>the</strong> Public Works Building.<br />

Scheduled maintenance and<br />

operation will be supervised by <strong>the</strong><br />

Public Works Director and<br />

performed by <strong>the</strong> city staff. Upon<br />
