Emergency Management
Director: Vacancy Assistant Director: John Early
Emergency Management is tasked with planning and coordinating the Town's response to an emergency or disaster. As time allows we will be adding more information on preparedness for Town residents. Until then both MEMA (Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency), FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) and the American Red Cross all have good information on home preparedness. West Tisbury residents should have enough supplies to be self-sufficient for a minimum of 96 hours. Because we are on an island it may take longer for help to reach us.
West Tisbury's Emergency Plan:
COMPREHENSIVE EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLAN
(This is a very big file. Please be patient while it loads.)
This plan will be updated as we learn from drills, exercises, real disasters and lessons learned from other places.
