Disasters and
events, either natural or manmade, are a concern
everywhere. The Village Emergency Management staff
monitor for such things and respond accordingly.
Hurricanes and other tropical
disturbances frequent the east coast each year. All
residents should be prepared to evacuate as directed
by the Emergency Management team and also have
contingency plans in place in the event evacuation
is not a viable option. A listing of disaster
supplies you should have on hand is available at
Ready America.
We utilize a all-call phone dialing
system that can call all homes and commercial phones
on the island. This system is utilized to notify
residents, visitors, and island workers of emergency
situations such as pending hurricanes, evacuation
notices, problems with utilities, etc. A brief
message will begin when you answer your phone, or
when your answering machine picks up.
We post our inclement weather status,
to include evacuation status, at
Current Status.
