WISHING You MILLENNIUM COMFORT AND JOY |

Mayor Barbzra Sharp announced today that the City is fine-tuning its Emergency Response Plan in prepara-
tion for the upcoming New Year. Arrangements are being made to place key staff on call out alert in addition to
. the plans made by Police and Fire Emergency Response personnel. Over the past several years, the City has been hard at work
assessing its many functions and syscems in regards to potential 2K difficulties. Mayor Sharp said that she is very pleased with
the arrangements made to date. “Like most other organizations we feel confident that we are prepared but the reality is that
there is a risk of unanticipated events,” she said. Mayor Sharp also said she wishes to encourage all residents and businesses to
review their own state of readiness. “Individual preparation including the ability to look after yourself independently for a
minimum of three days after an evant is key to any broad community recovery process,” she said. Information regarding personal
preparedness is available from the North and West Vancouver Emergency Program at 983-7440.
