Get prepared for an emergency
The weekend’s wild winds were a reminder for us all to be prepared for emergencies. From trees down, to fires, to power outages, it was a timely reminder to have those emergency supplies and grab bags ready to go.
At Council we play an important role in emergency management for Kāpiti, operating within the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) framework.
So how will we let you know if you need to evacuate in an emergency? Aside from the “Long OR strong, get gone” message for earthquakes and tsunami risk, at other times emergency services will knock on your door if you need to evacuate, or use loud hailers in the streets.
You can also download our free Antenno app, where we’ll send out alerts in an emergency situation – find out more at www.kapiticoast.govt.nz...
We saw a bit of discussion about sirens going off – remember that in Kāpiti, sirens are for firefighters; we won’t use them for emergency situations or tsunami. You can find out more about the reasons for this at Wellington Region Emergency Management Office (WREMO’s) position on tsunami sirens 👉 wremo.nz....
Stay safe out there Kāpiti, and to make sure you’re prepared for an emergency, visit www.kapiticoast.govt.nz...
