“This is an ongoing process for us…For much of what we do, and what the Emergency Management Division does, we work year-round in preparation for hurricane season. After we complete an event, we go back in and make an assessment of it to determine our strengths, weaknesses, and how we can look to improve…Following the last season, and the previous seasons before, we’re always looking at how we can prepare and better ourselves for the future.”-Major General Van McCarty
