County administrator acknowledges emergency management deployment
What the county recorded
This item is not from the published agenda
It is a stretch of the recording that this archive identified as a separate matter — a call to order, a recess, or something taken up that the agenda does not list. There is no official title, no staff recommendation and no disposition, because the county never recorded one. Everything below is inferred.

Thank you, Madam Chair. Just one item really. I'd just like to take a second to uh acknowledge our emergency management team. You may or may not be aware, but in September and October there were uh a number of flash floods uh in Gila, Arizona. So we deployed a team out there, Andy and some of our folks to uh provide emergency management services uh to that area and they've they've done a phenomenal job, but uh just Andy had given a shout out. To the various areas of the county that also assisted with this, namely our public, our media relations communications team really
stepped up in a big way. Our Solid Waste Department, especially debris management, also stepped up, purchasing GIS and other team members. And so, again, just another great example of how we've leveraged our experience with disaster to help other communities, and it continues to help our folks train. and and to be better at what we at what we do.
So I talked to Andy about his trip and he said that because they are not used to having dis emergency, you know, disasters, they had no idea how to do disaster pickup and the communications part and that we were kinda running the communications from here for them. So uh they were out there for I think two weeks and um And I I'm sure that I'll I'll talk to the commissioners from there and Yeah.
Yeah. Well the I'm so proud of our guys. We we see it as a good example to not only train but also get back and assist uh where others needed. So passengers out there up in the forefront. That's all.
Okay, um I never remember which one.
Um and this time I have something. Um
