Century Talks Emergency Management With Escambia County
February 10, 2017
The Century Town Council held a workshop meeting Thursday night with Escambia County Emergency Management to learn more about emergency response and recovery operations.
Brad Hattaway, planning coordinator for Escambia EMA, explained to the council how the agency works and the council’s role. He said the Town of Century is part of the planning process and the Emergency Operations Center (EOC) is there to support the town during disasters.
The town has a standing invitation to participate in the planning, training, exercises and operations of the EOC, Hattaway said.
The Town of Century currently contracts with BRACE – the Be Ready Alliance Coordinating for Emergencies — to represent the town during EOC activations.
