PREPAREDNESS
Keeping residents
safe is a definite priority for the
Township of Whitewater Region. Taking
appropriate steps ahead of time can
help you deal better when an emergency
strikes in your area! Organizing
an emergency plan with your family
and household and maintaining essential
supplies on hand is the first important
step to take.
Emergencies often
strike too quickly to allow you to
choose a shelter or to pack an Emergency
Kit so it always helps to prepare
a list of what to do and what to
have on hand when an emergency occurs.
For tips and outlines
on how to make your own household Emergency
Plan, please visit the Public Safety
