Shafter prepares for emergencies with city plan and drills
Teas Lee drew a crowd as John Guinn and Chief of Police John Zrofsky outlined Shafter emergency plans. They described levels of response from power outages to earthquakes, the use of a BOC at City Hall or alternate EOC sites, and the need for residents to have three day survival kits. Officials noted plans aim to minimize disruption, with services lasting 30 to 90 days, and emphasized water, food, radios, and backups as essential. The city has spent 300000 dollars over two years to limit Y2K impact and urges families to prepare now.
